Observatory science with eXTP
Jean J. M. in 't Zand, Enrico Bozzo, Jinlu Qu +181
In this White Paper we present the potential of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry (eXTP) mission for studies related to Observatory Science targets. These include flaring s…
Periastron Observations of TeV Gamma-Ray Emission from a Binary System with a 50-year Period
The VERITAS Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, W. Benbow +212
We report on observations of the pulsar / Be star binary system PSR J2032+4127 / MT91 213 in the energy range between 100 GeV and 20 TeV with the VERITAS and MAGIC imaging atmosphe…
The first ultraviolet detection of the Large Magellanic Cloud pulsar PSR B0540-69 and its multi-wavelength properties
R. P. Mignani, A. Shearer, A. de Luca +9
We observed the young ( yrs) pulsar PSR B0540-69 in the near-ultraviolet (UV) for the first time with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) aboard the {\em Hub…
VERITAS and Fermi-LAT observations of new HAWC sources
VERITAS Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, A. Archer +280
The HAWC (High Altitude Water Cherenkov) collaboration recently published their 2HWC catalog, listing 39 very high energy (VHE; >100~GeV) gamma-ray sources based on 507 days of obs…
Measurement of Cosmic-ray Electrons at TeV Energies by VERITAS
VERITAS Collaboration, A. Archer, W. Benbow +58
Cosmic-ray electrons and positrons (CREs) at GeV-TeV energies are a unique probe of our local Galactic neighborhood. CREs lose energy rapidly via synchrotron radiation and inverse-…
The extreme HBL behaviour of Markarian 501 during 2012
M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +276
A multiwavelength campaign was organized to take place between March and July of 2012. Excellent temporal coverage was obtained with more than 25 instruments, including the MAGIC,…
Measurement of the Iron Spectrum in Cosmic Rays by VERITAS
The VERITAS collaboration, A. Archer, W. Benbow +55
We present a new measurement of the energy spectrum of iron nuclei in cosmic rays from 20 to 500 TeV. The measurement makes use of a template-based analysis method, which, for the…
VERITAS observations of the BL Lac object TXS 0506+056
A. U. Abeysekara, A. Archer, W. Benbow +57
On 2017 September 22, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory reported the detection of the high-energy neutrino event \icnu, of potential astrophysical origin. It was soon determined tha…
HESS J1943+213: An Extreme Blazar Shining Through The Galactic Plane
The VERITAS Collaboration, A. Archer, W. Benbow +60
HESS J1943+213 is a very-high-energy (VHE; 100 GeV) -ray source in the direction of the Galactic Plane. Studies exploring the classification of the source are converging towa…
A Very High Energy -Ray Survey towards the Cygnus Region of the Galaxy
The VERITAS Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, A. Archer +68
We present results from deep observations towards the Cygnus region using 300 hours of very-high-energy (VHE) -ray data taken with the VERITAS Cherenkov telescope array and over…
A strong limit on the very-high-energy emission from GRB 150323A
A. U. Abeysekara, A. Archer, W. Benbow +63
On 2015 March 23, VERITAS responded to a -BAT detection of a gamma-ray burst, with observations beginning 270 seconds after the onset of BAT emission, and only 135 seconds a…
Multiwavelength observations of the blazar BL Lacertae: a new fast TeV gamma-ray flare
A. U. Abeysekara, W. Benbow, R. Bird +74
Combined with very-long-baseline interferometry measurements, the observations of fast TeV gamma-ray flares probe the structure and emission mechanism of blazar jets. However, only…
