Scientific paper

A search for TeV γ-rays from the pulsars PSR B1706-44 and PSR B1055-52 and the radio galaxy Cen A were made with two atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes, the 3.8-m telescope and the BIGRAT, at Woomera, Australia in 1994 and 1995. The S/N of 0.16 obtained by the imaging technique has been improved to 0.91 by using the stereoscopic and timing analyses. This improvement reduces the necessary time for observation by a factor of 4. TeV γ-rays from PSR B1706-44 have been detected. The significance is 4.9 σ.
