Multiband variability studies and novel broadband SED modeling of Mrk 501 in 2009

M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +290

We present an extensive study of the BL Lac object Mrk 501 based on a data set collected during the multi-instrument campaign spanning from 2009 March 15 to 2009 August 1 which inc…

A search for spectral hysteresis and energy-dependent time lags from X-ray and TeV gamma-ray observations of Mrk 421

A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +220

Blazars are variable emitters across all wavelengths over a wide range of timescales, from months down to minutes. It is therefore essential to observe blazars simultaneously at di…

A Search for Very High-Energy Gamma Rays from the Missing Link Binary Pulsar J1023+0038 with VERITAS

E. Aliu, S. Archambault, A. Archer +82

The binary millisecond radio pulsar PSR J1023+0038 exhibits many characteristics similar to the gamma-ray binary system PSR B1259--63/LS 2883, making it an ideal candidate for the…

Very-high-energy observations of the binaries V 404 Cyg and 4U 0115+634 during giant X-ray outbursts

A. Archer, W. Benbow, R. Bird +62

Transient X-ray binaries produce major outbursts in which the X-ray flux can increase over the quiescent level by factors as large as . The low-mass X-ray binary V 404 Cyg an…
