Constraints on the Very High Energy Emission from BL Lacertae Objects

D. Horan

We present results from observations of 29 BL Lacertae objects, taken with the Whipple Observatory 10 m Gamma-Ray Telescope between 1995 and 2000. The observed objects are mostly a…

Enhanced Optical Emission During Crab Giant Radio Pulses

A. Shearer, B. Stappers, P. O' Connor +3

We detected a correlation between optical and giant radio pulse emission from the Crab pulsar. Optical pulses coincident with the giant radio pulses were on average 3% brighter tha…

Pulsar PSR B0656+14, the Monogem Ring, and the Origin of the `Knee' in the Primary Cosmic Ray Spectrum

S. E. Thorsett, R. A. Benjamin, Walter F. Brisken +2

The Monogem ring is a bright, diffuse, 25-degree-diameter supernova remnant easily visible in soft X-ray images of the sky. Projected within the ring is a young radio pulsar, PSR B…

Measuring the Absolute Height and Profile of the Mesospheric Sodium Layer using a Continuous Wave Laser

D. J. Butler, R. I. Davies, R. M. Redfern +2

We have developed and tested a novel method, based on LIDAR, of measuring the height and profile of the mesospheric sodium layer using a continuous wave laser. It is more efficient…
