Evidence for long-term gamma-ray and x-ray variability from the unidentified tev source hess j0632+057
(IOP Publishing, 2009-05-28)
HESS J0632+057 is one of only two unidentified very-high-energy gamma-ray sources which appear to be point-like within experimental resolution. It is possibly associated with the massive Be star MWC 148 and has been suggested ...
Multiwavelength observations of a tev-flare from w comae
(IOP Publishing, 2009-11-24)
We report results from an intensive multiwavelength campaign on the intermediate-frequency-peaked BL Lacertae object W Com (z = 0.102) during a strong outburst of very high energy gamma-ray emission in 2008 June. The very ...
Multiwavelength observations of ls i +61° 303 with veritas,swift, andrxte
(IOP Publishing, 2009-07-08)
We present results from a long-term monitoring campaign on the TeV binary LSI +61 degrees 303 with VERITAS at energies above 500 GeV, and in the 2-10 keV hard X-ray bands with RXTE and Swift, sampling nine 26.5 day orbital ...
Observation of extended very high energy emission from the supernova remnant ic 443 with veritas
(IOP Publishing, 2009-06-01)
We present evidence that the very high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray emission coincident with the supernova remnant IC 443 is extended. IC 443 contains one of the best studied sites of supernova remnant/molecular ...
Veritas observations of a very high energy γ-ray flare from the blazar 3c 66a
(IOP Publishing, 2009-02-18)
The intermediate-frequency peaked BL Lacertae (IBL) object 3C 66A is detected during 2007-2008 in VHE ( very high energy; E > 100 GeV) gamma rays with the VERITAS stereoscopic array of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov ...
Detection of extended vhe gamma ray emission from g106.3+2.7 with veritas
(IOP Publishing, 2009-08-25)
We report the detection of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from supernova remnant (SNR) G106.3+2.7. Observations performed in 2008 with the VERITAS atmospheric Cherenkov gamma-ray telescope resolve extended ...
Simultaneous multiwavelength observations of markarian 421 during outburst
(IOP Publishing, 2009-08-26)
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, ...
Veritas observations of the bl lac object 1es 1218+304
(IOP Publishing, 2009-04-07)
The VERITAS collaboration reports the detection of very-high-energy gamma-ray emission from the high-frequency-peaked BL Lac object 1ES 1218+304 located at a redshift of z = 0.182. A gamma-ray signal was detected with a ...
Veritas upper limit on the very high energy emission from the radio galaxy ngc 1275
(IOP Publishing, 2009-11-16)
The recent detection by the Fermi gamma-ray space telescope of high-energy gamma-rays from the radio galaxy NGC 1275 makes the observation of the very high energy (VHE: E > 100 GeV) part of its broadband spectrum ...
Multiwavelength observations of markarian 421 in 2005-2006
(IOP Publishing, 2009-03-31)
Since 2005 September, the Whipple 10 m Gamma-ray Telescope has been operated primarily as a blazar monitor. The five northern hemisphere blazars that have already been detected at the Whipple Observatory, Markarian 421 ...
