H.E.S.S. detection of the PSR J0855−4644 nebula
Context. HESS J0852−463 is a TeV γ-ray source located in the Galactic plane. The region consists of a supernova remnant (SNR, RX J0852.0−4622) with a shell-like morphology, commonly referred to as Vela Junior, and…
The second H.E.S.S. gamma-ray burst catalogue: 15 years of observations with the H.E.S.S. telescopes
Context. Recent observational efforts using imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs) have led to firm detections of very-high-energy (VHE) signals from bright gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), often at moderate redshifts. Aims. This work presents 15 years…
Combined dark matter search towards dwarf spheroidal galaxies with Fermi-LAT, HAWC, H.E.S.S., MAGIC, and VERITAS
Dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) are excellent targets for indirect dark matter (DM) searches using gamma-ray telescopes because they are thought to have high DM content and a low astrophysical background. The sensitivity of these…
H.E.S.S. detection and multi-wavelength study of the z∼1 blazar PKS 0346–27
Context. PKS 0346-27 is a low synchrotron peaked blazar at redshift 0.991. The very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) spectra of blazars are always affected by γγ absorption by the extragalactic background light (EBL),…
Constraining the nature of the most extreme Galactic particle accelerator: H.E.S.S. observations of the microquasar V4641 Sgr
Context. Microquasars have emerged as promising candidates to explain the cosmic-ray flux at petaelectronvolt energies. LHAASO observations revealed V4641 Sgr as the most extreme example so far. Its gamma-ray spectrum extends up to 800…
Prompt Searches for Very-high-energy γ-Ray Counterparts to IceCube Astrophysical Neutrino Alerts
The search for sources of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos can be significantly advanced through a multimessenger approach, which seeks to detect the γ-rays that accompany neutrinos as they are produced at their sources. Multimessenger observations…
H.E.S.S. programme searching for VHE gamma rays associated with FRBs
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are highly energetic, extremely short-lived bursts of radio flashes. Despite extensive research, the exact cause of these outbursts remains speculative. The high luminosity, short duration, and high dispersion measure of…
The H.E.S.S. extragalactic sky survey with the first decade of observations
The results of the first extragalactic gamma-ray survey by the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) are presented. The survey comprises 2720 hours of very high-energy gamma-ray observations of the extragalactic sky, recorded with H.E.S.S.…
Detection of very high-energy gamma-ray emission from Eta Carinae during its 2020 periastron passage
The colliding-wind binary system η Carinae has been identified as a source of high-energy (HE, below ∼100 GeV) and very high-energy (VHE, above ∼100 GeV) gamma rays in the last decade, making it unique…
Broadband multi-wavelength properties of M87 during the 2018 EHT campaign including a very high energy flaring episode
Context. The nearby elliptical galaxy M87 contains one of only two supermassive black holes whose emission surrounding the event horizon has been imaged by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT). In 2018, more than two…
