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…
STACEE Observations of Mrk 421 During the 2001 Flare
STACEE Collaboration, L. M. Boone, D. Bramel +14
STACEE is a ground based gamma-ray observatory that uses a heliostat array, built for solar energy research, to detect atmospheric Cherenkov radiation from gamma-ray initiated exte…
The Status of the STACEE Observatory
C. E. Covault, L. M. Boone, D. Bramel +12
The Solar Tower Atmospheric Cherenkov Effect Experiment (STACEE) is a ground-based instrument designed to study astrophysical sources of gamma radiation in the energy range of 50 t…
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,…
Very High Energy Gamma-ray spectral properties of Mrk 501 from CAT Cerenkov telescope observations in 1997
A. Djannati-Atai, F. Piron, A. Barrau +31
The BL Lac object Mrk 501 went into a very high state of activity during 1997, both in VHE gamma-rays and X-rays. We present here results from observations at energies above 250 Ge…
