Atmospheric sensing for the H.E.S.S. array (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Aye, K., Brown, A., Chadwick, P., Hadjichristidis, C., Latham, I., Le Gallou, R., …Collaboration, H. (2005). Atmospheric sensing for the H.E.S.S. array. In F. A. Aharonian, H. Völk, & D. Horns (Eds.), High energy gamma-ray astronomy: 2nd International Symposium on High Energy Gamma-Ray Astronomy, Heidelberg, Germany, 26-30 July 2004 (724-729). https://doi.org/10.1063/1.1878491

Several atmospheric monitoring instruments have been installed at the H.E.S.S. gamma‐ray observatory in Namibia. Firstly, Heitronics KT19 infrared radiometers, aligned paraxially with the H.E.S.S. telescopes, measure the infrared radiation of the wat...

H.E.S.S. observations of PKS 2155-304 (2005)
Journal Article
Aharonian, F., Akhperjanian, A., Aye, K., Bazer-Bachi, A., Beilicke, M., Benbow, W., …Wagner, S. (2005). H.E.S.S. observations of PKS 2155-304. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 430(3), 865-875. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361%3A20041853

The high-frequency peaked BL Lac PKS 2155-304 at redshift z=0.117 has been detected with high significance (~45sigma) at energies greater than 160 GeV, using the H.E.S.S. stereoscopic array of imaging air-Cherenkov telescopes in Namibia. A strong sig... Read More about H.E.S.S. observations of PKS 2155-304.

High-energy particle acceleration in the shell of a supernova remnant (2004)
Journal Article
Aharonian, F., Akhperjanian, A., Aye, K., Bazer-Bachi, A., Beilicke, M., Benbow, W., …Wagner, S. (2004). High-energy particle acceleration in the shell of a supernova remnant. Nature, 432(7013), 75-77. https://doi.org/10.1038/nature02960

A significant fraction of the energy density of the interstellar medium is in the form of high-energy charged particles (cosmic rays)1. The origin of these particles remains uncertain. Although it is generally accepted that the only sources capable o... Read More about High-energy particle acceleration in the shell of a supernova remnant.

Calibration of cameras of the H.E.S.S. detector (2004)
Journal Article
Aharonian, F., Akhperjanian, A., Aye, K., Bazer-Bachi, A., Beilicke, M., Benbow, W., …Wagner, S. (2004). Calibration of cameras of the H.E.S.S. detector. Astroparticle Physics, 22(2), 109-125. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.astropartphys.2004.06.006

H.E.S.S.—the high energy stereoscopic system—is a new system of large atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes for GeV/TeV astronomy. Each of the four telescopes of 107 m2 mirror area is equipped with a 960-pixel photomultiplier-tube camera. This paper descr... Read More about Calibration of cameras of the H.E.S.S. detector.

Very high energy gamma rays from the direction of Sagittarius A<SUP>*</SUP> (2004)
Journal Article

We report the detection of a point-like source of very high energy (VHE) -rays coincident within 1' of Sgr A *, obtained with the HESS array of Cherenkov telescopes. The -rays exhibit a power-law energy spectrum with a spectral index of and a flux ab... Read More about Very high energy gamma rays from the direction of Sagittarius A<SUP>*</SUP>.
