  • Simultaneous Multiwavelength Observations of Markarian 421 During Outburst
    Lang, Mark (2009)
    We report on the results of two coordinated multiwavelength campaigns that focused on the blazar Markarian 421 during its 2006 and 2008 outbursts. These campaigns obtained UV and X-ray data using the XMM-Newton satellite, ...
  • Status of the VERITAS Observatory
    Lang, Mark; Gillanders, Gary (2008)
    VERITAS, an Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (IACT) system for gammma-ray astronomy in the GeV-TeV range, has recently completed its first season of observations with a full array of four telescopes. A number of ...
  • Supersonic turbulence in the cold massive core JCMT 18354-0649S
    Redman, Matt P. (2009)
    An example of a cold massive core, JCMT 18354-0649S, a possible high mass analogue to a low mass star forming core is studied. Line and continuum observations from JCMT, Mopra Telescope and Spitzer are presented and modelled ...
  • TeV and Multi-wavelength Observations of Mrk 421 in 2006-2008
    Lang, Mark; Gillanders, Gary (2011)
    We report on TeV gamma-ray observations of the blazar Mrk 421 (redshift of 0.031) with the VERITAS observatory and the Whipple 10m Cherenkov telescope. The excellent sensitivity of VERITAS allowed us to sample the TeV ...
  • TeV Gamma-Ray Observations of the Perseus and Abell 2029 Galaxy Clusters
    Lang, Mark; Gillanders, Gary (2006)
    Galaxy clusters might be sources of TeV gamma rays emitted by high-energy protons and electrons accelerated by large scale structure formation shocks, galactic winds, or active galactic nuclei. Furthermore, gamma rays may ...
  • Towards an explanation for the 30 Dor (LMC) Honeycomb nebula - the impact of recent observations and spectral analysis
    Meaburn, John; Redman, Matt P; Boumis, Panos; Harvey, Eamonn (2010)
  • VERITAS 2008 - 2009 monitoring of the variable gamma-ray source M87
    Lang, Mark; Gillanders, Gary (2010)
    M87 is a nearby radio galaxy that is detected at energies ranging from radio to VHE gamma-rays. Its proximity and its jet, misaligned from our line-of-sight, enable detailed morphological studies and extensive modeling at ...
  • VERITAS Discovery of >200GeV Gamma-ray Emission from the Intermediate-frequency-peaked BL Lac Object W Comae
