Abstract content

The South Pole Air Shower Experiment (SPASE-2) began operation in 1996 and took data until it was decommissioned in December, 2006. We are currently analyzing some 200 million reconstructed events taken between 1997 and the end of 2006. In this paper we report on a search for 100 TeV gamma-rays from three specific Southern hemisphere point sources discovered by H.E.S.S. to have gamma-ray spectra that extend to beyond 10 TeV.
