The region around PSR B1706 - 44 has been observed with the HESS imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes in 2003. No evidence for gamma-ray emission in the TeV range was found at the pulsar position or at the radio arc which corresponds to the supernova remnant G343.1 - 2.3. The 99% confidence level flux upper limit at the pulsar position is F-ul( E > 350 GeV) = 1.4 x 10(-12) s(-1) cm(-2) assuming a power law (dN/dE proportional to E-Gamma) with photon index of Gamma = 2.5 and F-ul( E > 500 GeV) = 1.3 x 10(-12) s(-1) cm(-2) without an assumption on the spectral shape. The reported upper limits correspond to 8% of the flux from an earlier detection by the CANGAROO experiment.

Observations of the unidentified TeV gamma-ray source TeV J2032+4130 with the Whipple Observatory 10 m telescope
Konopelko, A.; et. al. (IOP Publishing, 2007-04-01)
We report on observations of the sky region around the unidentified TeV gamma-ray source (TeV J2032+ 4130) carried out with the Whipple Observatory 10 m atmospheric Cerenkov telescope for a total of 65.5 hr between 2003 and 2005. The standard two-dimensional analysis developed by the Whipple collaboration for a stand-alone telescope reveals an excess in the field of view at a pretrial significance level of 6.1 sigma. The measured position of this excess is alpha = 20(h)32(m)27(s), delta = 41 degrees 39'17" ...
OBSERVATIONS OF THE SHELL-TYPE SUPERNOVA REMNANT CASSIOPEIA A AT TeV ENERGIES WITH VERITAS
Acciari, V. A.; et. al. (IOP Publishing, 2010-05-01)
We report on observations of very high energy gamma rays from the shell-type supernova remnant (SNR) Cassiopeia A with the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System stereoscopic array of four imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes in Arizona. The total exposure time for these observations is 22 hr, accumulated between September and November of 2007. The gamma-ray source associated with the SNR Cassiopeia A was detected above 200 GeV with a statistical significance of 8.3 sigma. The estimated...
A search for supernova remnants in the nearby spiral galaxy M74 (NGC 628)
SONBAŞ, EDA; AKYÜZ, AYSUN; Balman, Şölen; Ozel, M. E. (EDP Sciences, 2010-07-01)
An optical search was carried out for supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Sc type nearby spiral galaxy M 74, using ground-based observations at the TUBITAK National Observatory (TUG, Antalya/Turkey) and the Special Astrophysics Observatory (SAO, Russia). Observations were supplemented by the spectral analysis of archived X-ray data from XMM-Newton and Chandra. The survey of M74 covered similar to 9 arcmin(2) with [S II], H alpha, and their continuum filters. Interference filter images of M 74 were obtained the...
A Study on W Ursae Majoris-Type Systems Recognised by the ROTSE-IIId Experiment
Coker, D.; ÖZDEMİR, SACİT; YEŞİLYAPRAK, Cahit; Yerli, Sinan Kaan; AKSAKER, NAZIM; Gucsav, B. B. (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2013-01-24)
We present a study on characterising the light curves of W UMa-type systems gathered from the archive containing 5 years of data observed with the Robotic Optical Transient Search Experiment Telescope (ROTSE-IIId) located in Turkey. A sample of 45 W UMa-type systems was studied on the basis of Fourier decomposition of light curves and some basic geometrical parameters, namely degree of contact (f), mass ratio (q), and orbital inclination (i), as approximated values for these systems were determined. Moreove...
The XMM-Newton detection of extended emission from the nova remnant of T Pyxidis
Balman, Şölen (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2010-05-01)
We report the detection of an extended X-ray nebulosity with an elongation from north-east to south-west in excess of 15 arcsec in a radial profile and imaging of the recurrent nova T Pyx using the archival data obtained with the X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton), European Photon Imaging Camera (pn instrument). The signal-to-noise ratio in the extended emission (above the point source and the background) is 5.2 over the 0.3-9.0 keV energy range and 4.9 over the 0.3-1.5 keV energy range. We calculate a...
