 High Energy Stereoscopic System

The High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) is an array of ground-based gamma-ray observatories located in Namibia, specifically designed for the study of high-energy astrophysical phenomena. H.E.S.S. is particularly focused on gamma-ray astronomy, which investigates cosmic gamma rays, a type of radiation emitted by some of the most energetic processes in the universe, such as supernovae, pulsars, and active galactic nuclei.
