Aims.We present results from deep observations of the Galactic shell-type supernova remnant (SNR) RX J1713.7-3946 (also known as G347.3-0.5 ) conducted with the complete HESS array in 2004. Methods.Detailed morphological and spatially resolved spectr... Read More about A detailed spectral and morphological study of the gamma-ray supernovaremnant RX J1713.7-3946 with HESS.

A low level of extragalactic background light as revealed by big gamma-rays from blazars (2006)
Journal Article
Aharonian, F., Akhperjanian, A., Bazer-Bachi, A., Beilicke, M., Benbow, W., Berge, D., …Wagner, S. (2006). A low level of extragalactic background light as revealed by big gamma-rays from blazars. Nature, 440(7087), 1018-1021. https://doi.org/10.1038/nature04680

The diffuse extragalactic background light consists of the sum of the starlight emitted by galaxies through the history of the Universe, and it could also have an important contribution from the 'first stars', which may have formed before galaxy form...
