Fast variability of tera-electron volt gamma rays from the radio galaxy M87 (2006)
Journal Article
Aharonian, F., Akhperjanian, A., Bazer-Bachi, A., Beilicke, M., Benbow, W., Berge, D., …Ward, M. (2006). Fast variability of tera-electron volt gamma rays from the radio galaxy M87. Science, 314(5804), 1424-1427. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.1134408

The detection of fast variations of the tera–electron volt (TeV) (1012 eV) -ray flux, on time scales of days, from the nearby radio galaxy M87 is reported. These variations are about 10 times as fast as those observed in any other wave band and imply... Read More about Fast variability of tera-electron volt gamma rays from the radio galaxy M87.

The Vela supernova remnant (SNR) is a complex region containing a number of sources of non-thermal radiation. The inner section of this SNR, within 2 degrees of the pulsar PSR B0833-45 , has been observed by the HESS $\gamma$-ray atmospheric Cherenko...
