3EG J2016+3657: Confirming an EGRET Blazar Behind the Galactic Plane
J. P. Halpern, M. Eracleous, R. Mukherjee +1
We recently identified the blazar-like radio source G74.87+1.22 (B2013+370) as the counterpart of the high-energy gamma-ray source 3EG J2016+3657 in the Galactic plane. However, si…
Performance of the STACEE Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope
STACEE Collaboration, D. A. Williams, D. Bhattacharya +20
The Solar Tower Atmospheric Cherenkov Effect Experiment (STACEE) is located at the National Solar Thermal Test Facility of Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico,…
High Energy Gamma Rays
R. Mukherjee
This article reviews the present status of high energy gamma-ray astronomy at energies above 30 MeV. Observations in the past decade using both space- and ground-based experiments…
The Frequency of Polarized Broad Emission Lines in Type 2 Seyfert Galaxies
E. C. Moran, A. J. Barth, L. E. Kay +1
We have discovered polarized broad emission lines in five type 2 Seyfert galaxies (NGC 424, NGC 591, NGC 2273, NGC 3081, and NGC 4507), establishing that these objects are type 1 S…
High Energy Gamma-Ray Observations of the Crab Nebula and Pulsar with the Solar Tower Atmospheric Cherenkov Effect Experiment
STACEE Collaboration, S. Oser, D. Bhattacharya +17
The Solar Tower Atmospheric Cherenkov Effect Experiment (STACEE) is a new ground-based atmospheric Cherenkov telescope for gamma-ray astronomy. STACEE uses the large mirror area of…
Multiwavelength Examination of the COS-B Field 2CG 075+00 Yields a Blazar Identification for 3EG J2016+3657
R. Mukherjee, E. V. Gotthelf, J. Halpern +1
We present a high-energy study of the intriguing COS-B gamma-ray field, 2CG 075+00, in order to search for possible counterparts. New EGRET data show that the COS-B emission probab…
