Cen X-3 is a well-studied high-mass accreting X-ray binary and a variable source of high energy gamma rays from 100 MeV to 1 TeV. The object has been extensively monitored with the University of Durham Mark 6 telescope. Results of observations, including those taken in 1998 and 1999, are reported. There is no evidence for time variability in all the VHE data. There is also no evidence for correlation of the VHE flux with the X-ray flux detected by BATSE and RXTE/ASM. A search for periodic emission, at or close to the X-ray spin period, in the VHE data yielded a 3 sigma upper limit to the pulsed flux of 2.0 x 10^-12 cm^-2 s^-1.
We analyze the ASCA spectrum of the Cen X-3 X-ray binary system in eclipse using atomic models appropriate to recombination-dominated level population kinetics in an overionized plasma. In order to estimate the wind characteristics, we first fit the
Cygnus X-3 is a microquasar consisting of an accreting compact object orbiting around a Wolf-Rayet star. It has been detected at radio frequencies and up to high-energy gamma rays (above 100 MeV). However, many models also predict a very high energy
Using two Chandra observations we have derived estimates of the dust distribution and distance to the eclipsing high mass X-ray binary (HMXB) Cen X-3 using the energy-resolved dust-scattered X-ray halo. By comparing the observed X-ray halos in 200 eV
The radio galaxy Cen A has been detected all the way up to the TeV energy range. This raises the question about the dominant emission mechanisms in the high-energy domain. Spectral analysis allows us to put constraints on the possible emission proces
We report the discovery of TeV gamma-ray emission from the Type Ia supernova remnant (SNR) G120.1+1.4, known as Tychos supernova remnant. Observations performed in the period 2008-2010 with the VERITAS ground-based gamma-ray observatory reveal weak e
