We present very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) data from the γ-ray binary system PSR B1259-63/LS 2883 taken around its periastron passage on 15th of December 2010 with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) of Cherenkov Telescopes. We a... Read More about H.E.S.S. observations of the binary system PSR B1259-63/LS 2883 around the 2010/2011 periastron passage.
Search for very-high-energy γ-ray emission from Galactic globular clusters with H.E.S.S (2013)
Journal Article
