A decade of TeV observations of the gamma-ray binary HESS J0632+057 with VERITAS

Abstract

Abstract. The gamma-ray binary HESS J0632+057 (VER J0633+057) has been observed at very-high energies for a decade by all major systems of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. We present here new observations taken by the VERITAS observatory during the season 2015-2016. The observations cover now all phases of the binary orbit (with its period of about 315 days), showing clearly enhancements around phases 0.35 and 0.75. The results are discussed along with simultaneous observations with Swift's X-Ray Telescope.
