Evidence for TeV gamma ray emission from TeV J2032+4130 in Whipple archival data
A reanalysis of data taken on the Cygnus region in 1989-90 using the Whipple Observatory atmospheric Cherenkov imaging telescope confirms the existence of the TeV J2032+4130 source reported by the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory and published by the HEGRA Collaboration. The significance at the a priori HEGRA position is 3.3σ. The peak signal was found at RA = 20h32m, Dec = +4133’. This is 0.6...
متن کاملEvidence for TeV gamma ray emission from Cassiopeia A
232 hours of data were accumulated from 1997 to 1999, using the HEGRA Stereoscopic Cherenkov Telescope System to observe the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A. TeV γ-ray emission was detected at the 5σ level, and a flux of (5.8± 1.2stat ± 1.2syst)× 10phms above 1TeV was derived. The spectral distribution is consistent with a power law with a differential spectral index of −2.5± 0.4stat ± 0.1syst b...
متن کاملEvidence for TeV gamma ray emission from Cassiopeia A
With the HEGRA stereoscopic system of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes, TeV γ-ray emission was detected from the Supernova remnant Cassiopeia A for the first time. The detection has a statistical significance of 5σ. A flux of (5.8 ± 1.2stat ± 1.2syst) × 10−9ph m−2s−1 above 1 TeV is derived. The spectral distribution is consistent with a power law with a differential spectral index −2.5 ...
متن کاملEvidence for TeV gamma - ray emission from the shell typeSNR
We report the results of TeV gamma-ray observations of the shell type SNR RXJ1713.7 3946 (G347.3 0.5). The discovery of strong non-thermal Xray emission from the northwest part of the remnant strongly suggests the existence of electrons with energies up to 100 TeV in the remnant, making the SNR a good candidate TeV gamma-ray source. We observed RXJ1713.7 3946 from May to August 1998 with the CA...
متن کاملSearch for Cygnus Arm Diffuse TeV Gamma Ray Emission with the Whipple 10 m Telescope
The Whipple 10 meter atmospheric Cherenkov telescope has made observations of the region known as the Cygnus arm. This region has been recently reported by the Milagro experiment to contain a diffuse TeV γ-ray source centered at RA=308 and Dec=42. We report upper limits (using the Whipple 10 m telescope) obtained during the Fall 2004 observing season centered on RA=310 and Dec=42.65.
