A Three-Year Multi-Wavelength Study of the Very High Energy Gamma-ray Blazar 1ES 0229+200

E. Aliu, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +83

The high-frequency-peaked BL Lacertae object 1ES 0229+200 is a relatively distant (z = 0.1396), hard-spectrum (Gamma ~ 2.5), very-high-energy-emitting (E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray blaza…

One-Class Classification: Taxonomy of Study and Review of Techniques

Shehroz S. Khan, Michael G. Madden

One-class classification (OCC) algorithms aim to build classification models when the negative class is either absent, poorly sampled or not well defined. This unique situation con…

Periodic Optical Variability of Radio Detected Ultracool Dwarfs

Leon K. Harding, Gregg Hallinan, Richard P. Boyle +5

A fraction of very low mass stars and brown dwarfs are known to be radio active, in some cases producing periodic pulses. Extensive studies of two such objects have also revealed o…

Higher-order Reverse Automatic Differentiation with emphasis on the third-order

Robert M. Gower, Artur L. Gower

It is commonly assumed that calculating third order information is too expensive for most applications. But we show that the directional derivative of the Hessian (…

A search for enhanced very high energy gamma-ray emission from the March 2013 Crab Nebula flare

The VERITAS Collaboration, E. Aliu, S. Archambault +76

In March 2013, a flaring episode from the Crab Nebula lasting ~2 weeks was detected by the Fermi-LAT (Large Area Telescope on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope). VERITAS pr…

Unified Models of Molecular Emission from Class 0 Protostellar Outflow Sources

J. M. C. Rawlings, M. P. Redman, P. B. Carolan

Low mass star-forming regions are more complex than the simple spherically symmetric approximation that is often assumed. We apply a more realistic infall/outflow physical model to…

Discovery of a new TeV gamma-ray source: VER J0521+211

VERITAS Collaboration, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +83

We report the detection of a new TeV gamma-ray source, VER J0521+211, based on observations made with the VERITAS imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope array. These observations…

Optical Observations of PSR J0205+6449 - the next optical pulsar?

P. Moran, R. P. Mignani, S. Collins +3

PSR J0205+6449 is a young ({\approx} 5400 years), Crab-like pulsar detected in radio and at X and γ-ray energies and has the third largest spin-down flux among known rotation power…
