Modelling of very high energy radiation — •Jens Ruppel¹, Anita Reimer², and Reinhard Schlickeiser¹ — ¹Theoretische Physik IV, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Germany — ²Stanford University, Hansen Experimental Physics Lab, Stanford, CA 94305, USA

As an array of four imaging atmospheric Cherenkov-Telescopes, H.E.S.S. detects γ–rays from about 100 GeV up to several TeV. This technique is a unique window to physical processes, which yield spectra and fluxes that are often not yet completely understood. The presentation shows recent results of the analytical modelling of microphysical processes in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), Supernova remnants and other astrophysical accelerators.
