Scientific paper

The HEGRA experiment (High Energy Gamma Ray Astronomy) was operating 6 Cherenkov Telescopes on the Canary Island of La Palma until fall 2002 in the TeV energy regime. Five of these telescopes were operated in coincidence mode (stereoscopy), thus pioneering the stereoscopic observation technique, subsequently adopted by most of the next generation of Cherenkov Telescope experiments.
Throughout the operation of the HEGRA stereoscopic system unique results have been obtained for different object classes such as Active Galactic Nuclei, Plerions, shell-type Super Nova Remnants and an unidentified source. A review of the most important results on various detections will be given.
