Discovery of extended VHE gamma -ray emission from the vicinity of the young massive stellar cluster Westerlund 1

This study aims to investigate particle acceleration processes in the vicinity of the young massive stellar cluster Westerlund 1. Imaging of Cherenkov light from gamma -ray induced particle cascades in the Earth's atmosphere is used to search for VHE gamma rays from the region around Wd 1. Poss...
