Search for VHE gamma rays from SS433/W50 with the CANGAROO-II telescope (2009)

Hayashi, Sei., Kajino, F., Naito, T., Asahara, A., Bicknell, G. V., Clay, R. W., ...

SS433, located at the center of the supernova remnant W50, is a close proximity binary system consisting of a compact star and a normal star. Jets of material are directed outwards from the vicinity...

CANGAROO-III search for TeV Gamma-rays from two clusters of galaxies (2009)

Kiuchi, R., Mori, M., Bicknell, G. V., Clay, R. W., Edwards, P. G., Enomoto, R., ...

Because accretion and merger shocks in clusters of galaxies may accelerate particles to high energies, clusters are candidate sites for the origin of ultra-high-energy (UHE) cosmic-rays. A prediction...

Accretion Discs in Blazars (2009)

Jolley, E. J. D., Kuncic, Z., Bicknell, G. V., Wagner, S.

The characteristic properties of blazars (rapid variability, strong polarization, high brightness) are widely attributed to a powerful relativistic jet oriented close to our line of sight. Despite...

CANGAROO-III Observation of TeV Gamma Rays from the vicinity of PSR B1 706-44 (2009)

Enomoto, R., Kushida, J., Nakamori, T., Kifune, T., Bicknell, G. V., Clay, R. W., ...

Observation by the CANGAROO-III stereoscopic system of the Imaging Cherenkov Telescope has detected extended emission of TeV gamma rays in the vicinity of the pulsar PSR B1706$-$44. The strength of...

Complex shock structure in the western hot-spot of Pictor A (2002)

Saxton, C.J., Sutherland, R.S., Bicknell, G.V., Blanchet, G.F., Wagner, S.J.

We have carried out simulations of supersonic light jets in order to model the features observed in optical and radio images of the western hot-spot in the radio galaxy Pictor A. We have considered...
