A deep observation campaign carried out by the High Energy Stereoscopic System (HESS) on Centaurus A enabled the discovery of γ-rays from the blazar 1ES 1312-423, 2° away from the radio galaxy. With a differential flux at 1 TeV of f(1 TeV) = (1.9 ± 0.6 ± 0.4) × 10 cm s TeV corresponding to 0.5 per cent of the Crab nebula differential flux and a spectral index γ = 2.9 ± 0.5 ± 0.2, 1ES 1312-423 is one of the faintest sources ever detected in the very high energy (E <100 GeV) extragalactic sky. A careful analysis using three and a half years of Fermi Large Area Telescope (Fermi-LAT) data allows the discovery at high energies (100 < E MeV) of a hard spectrum (γ =1.4±0.4stat ±0.2sys) source coincident with 1ES 1312-423. Radio, optical, UV and X-ray observations complete the spectral energy distribution of this blazar, now covering 16 decades in energy. The emission is successfully fitted with a synchrotron self-Compton model for the non-thermal component, combined with a blackbody spectrum for the optical emission from the host galaxy. © 2013 The Authors.
