Multiwavelength Observations of the VHE Blazar 1ES 2344+514

V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu, T. Arlen +70

Multiwavelength observations of the high-frequency-peaked blazar 1ES2344+514 were performed from 2007 October to 2008 January. The campaign represents the first contemporaneous dat…

Very high-energy observations of the two high-frequency peaked BL Lac objects 1ES 1218+304 and H 1426+428

C. Mueller, N. Akhter, J. Ball +16

We present results of very-high-energy gamma-ray observations (E > 160 GeV) of two high-frequency-peaked BL Lac (HBL) objects, 1ES 1218+304 and H 1426+428, with the Solar Tower Atm…

Veritas: Status c. 2009

T. C. Weekes, the VERITAS Collaboration

VERITAS is a ground-based gamma-ray observatory that uses the imaging atmospheric Cherenkov technique and operates in the very high-energy (VHE) region of the gamma- ray spectrum f…

A connection between star formation activity and cosmic rays in the starburst galaxy M 82

V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu, T. Arlen +89

Although Galactic cosmic rays (protons and nuclei) are widely believed to be dominantly accelerated by the winds and supernovae of massive stars, definitive evidence of this origin…

A New Mirror Alignment System for the VERITAS Telescopes

A. McCann, D. Hanna, J. Kildea +1

Imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs) used for ground-based gamma-ray astronomy at TeV energies use reflectors with areas on the order of 100m as their primary optic…

Radio Imaging of the Very-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission Region in the Central Engine of a Radio Galaxy

The VERITAS Collaboration, the VLBA 43 GHz M 87 Monitoring Team, the H. E. S. S. Collaboration +1

The accretion of matter onto a massive black hole is believed to feed the relativistic plasma jets found in many active galactic nuclei (AGN). Although some AGN accelerate particle…
