The gamma-rays exhibit a power-law energy spectrum with a spectral index of -2.2 +/- 0.09 +/- 0.15 and a flux above the 165 GeV threshold of (1.82 +/- 0.22) \times 10^{-7} m^{-2} s^{-1}. The measured flux and spectrum differ substantially from recent results reported in particular by the CANGAROO collaboration. %G English %Z HESS %L in2p3-00022258 %U https://hal.in2p3.fr/in2p3-00022258 %~ IN2P3 %~ OBSPM %~ CEA %~ INSU %~ METEO %~ UNIV-PARIS7 %~ X %~ UPMC %~ UNIV-TLSE3 %~ UGA %~ LPTA %~ LLR %~ LPNHE %~ PCC %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-GRENOBLE1 %~ CDF %~ UNIV-MONTP2 %~ CNES %~ OSUG %~ LUTH %~ OMP %~ OMP-CESR %~ OMP-IRAP %~ X-LLR %~ LAOG %~ X-DEP %~ X-DEP-PHYS %~ DSM-IRFU %~ PSL %~ UPMC_POLE_2 %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ CEA-DRF %~ SORBONNE-UNIVERSITE %~ SU-SCIENCES %~ UNIV-PARIS %~ UP-SCIENCES %~ OBSPM-PSL %~ CDF-PSL %~ SU-TI %~ ALLIANCE-SU %~ UNIV-UT3 %~ UT3-INP %~ UT3-TOULOUSEINP %~ UM1-UM2 %~ LPNHE-2
