Multiwavelength Observations of Markarian 421 in March 2001: an Unprecedented View on the X-ray/TeV Correlated Variability
G. Fossati, J. H. Buckley, I. H. Bond +26
(Abridged) We present a detailed analysis of week-long simultaneous observations of the blazar Mrk421 at 2-60 keV X-rays (RXTE) and TeV gamma-rays (Whipple and HEGRA) in 2001. The…
Very High Energy Observations of Gamma-Ray Burst Locations with the Whipple Telescope
D. Horan, R. W. Atkins, H. M. Badran +56
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) observations at very high energies (VHE, E > 100 GeV) can impose tight constraints on some GRB emission models. Many GRB afterglow models predict a VHE compon…
Search for TeV Emission at the Location of Milagro Sky Survey Hot Spot Using the Whipple Gamma-Ray Telescope
A. Falcone
A recent report from the Milagro collaboration included an all-sky map created using one year of data from Milagro (peak sensitivity at 3-4 TeV for Crab-like spectra). This map inc…
Search for Very High Energy Gamma Rays from an X-ray Selected Blazar Sample
I. de la Calle Perez
In recent years, blazar surveys at radio and X-ray energies have greatly increased our understanding of this type of active galaxy. The combination of multi-wavelength data has sho…
CASA-BLANCA: A Large Non-imaging Cherenkov Detector at CASA-MIA
M. Cassidy, L. F. Fortson, J. W. Fowler +5
The lateral distribution of Cherenkov light at ground level records important information on the development of the cosmic ray air shower which produces it. We have constructed an…
