TL;DR: In this article, a very high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray source was detected with a statistical significance of 7 sigma, although no significant point-like emission was detected at the position of the energetic pulsar itself.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the large optical reflector (∼100m2) of a H.E.S. telescope to search for very fast optical transients of astrophysical origin.
