We present high-resolution X-ray images taken with the Chandra X-ray Observatory of the field that contains the unidentified TeV gamma-ray source HESS J1804-216. A total of eleven discrete sources were detected with a posteriori…
We present the results of two Chandra X-ray Observatory ( CXO) observations of TeV gamma-ray source HESS J1741-302A/B. Our analysis also includes GeV gamma-ray and radio data. We investigate whether there is any connection between HESS…
The field of the extended TeV source HESS J1804-216 was serendipitously observed with the Chandra ACIS detector. The data reveal several X-ray sources within the bright part of HESS J1804-216. The brightest of these objects, CXOU…
Many of the recently discovered TeV gamma-ray sources are associated with pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe). In fact, they represent the most populous class of Galactic sources at TeV energies. In addition, HESS has also discovered, in a survey of…
We observed the young energetic pulsar J1617-5055 with the Chandra ACIS detector for 60 ks. In addition to the pulsar, the X-ray images show a faint pulsar-wind nebula (PWN) seen up to ~1' from the pulsar. Deconvolution and reconstruction…
HESS J1616-508 is one of the brightest emitters in the TeV sky. Recent observations with the IBIS/ISGRI telescope on board the INTEGRAL spacecraft have revealed that a young, nearby and energetic pulsar, PSR J1617-5055, is a powerful…
We have made a multiwavelength study of the overlapping error boxes of the unidentified gamma-ray sources TeV J2032+4130 and 3EG J2033+4118 in the direction of the Cygnus OB2 association (d = 1.7 kpc) in order to search for a point-source…
The imaging atmospheric Cherenkov array H.E.S.S. recently discovered an extended source in the 0.4$-$10 TeV energy range, HESS J1303-631. We obtained a 5 ks observation with the ACIS-I array on the Chandra X-ray observatory that does not…
We have analyzed three XMM-Newton observations of the central part of the unidentified TeV \gamma-ray source HESS J1804-216. We focus on two X-ray sources 2XMMi J180442.0-214221 (Src 1) and 2XMMi J180432.5-214009 (Src 2), which were…
We observed the bright unidentified TeV gamma-ray source HESS J1616-508 with the X-ray Imaging Spectrometers onboard the Suzaku satellite. No X-ray counterpart was found to a limiting flux of 3.1e-13 erg/s/cm^2 in the 2--10 keV band, which…
We report on new Suzaku and XMM-Newton results concerning HESS J1614-518, which is one of the brightest extended TeV gamma-ray sources and has two regions with intense gamma-ray emission. We newly observed the south and center regions of…
We report the Suzaku results of HESS J1614-518, which is the brightest extended TeV gamma-ray source discovered in the Galactic plane survey conducted using the H.E.S.S. telescope. We discovered three X-ray objects in the field of view of…
We obtained a 108 ks Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) observation of PSR J1849-0001 and its pulsar wind nebula (PWN), coincident with the TeV source HESS J1849-000. By analyzing the new and archival CXO data, we resolved the pulsar from the…
HESS J1614$-$518 and HESS J1616$-$508 are two tera-electron volt (TeV) $\gamma$-ray sources that are not firmly associated with any known counterparts at other wavelengths. We investigate the distribution of interstellar medium towards the…
The gamma-ray pulsar PSR B1706-44 and the adjacent supernova remnant (SNR) candidate G343.1-2.3 were observed by H.E.S.S. during a dedicated observation campaign in 2007. As a result of this observation campaign, a new source of…
We report on a 40ks Chandra observation of the TeV emitting high mass X-ray binary HESS J0632+057 performed in February 2011 during a high-state of X-ray and TeV activity. We have used the ACIS-S camera in Continuos Clocking mode to search…
A 50 ksec Chandra observation of the unidentified TeV source in Cygnus reported by the HEGRA collaboration reveals no obvious diffuse X-ray counterpart. However, 240 Pointlike X-ray sources are detected within or nearby the extended TeV…
We present a Chandra X-ray observation of G12.82-0.02, a shell-like radio supernova remnant coincident with the TeV gamma-ray source HESS J1813-178. We resolve the X-ray emission from the co-located ASCA source into a compact object…
We present an X-ray study of the field containing the extended TeV source HESS J1834-087 using data obtained with the XMM-Newton telescope. Previously, the coincidence of this source with both the shell-type supernova remnant (SNR) W41 and…
We observed the first unidentified TeV gamma-ray source TeV J2032+4130 with Suzaku. Owing to Suzaku's high sensitivity for detection of diffuse X-ray emission, we found two small structures in the TeV emitting region. One of them is…
