VERITAS Observations of day-scale flaring of M87 in 2010 April

E. Aliu, T. Arlen, T. Aune +88

VERITAS has been monitoring the very-high-energy (VHE; >100GeV) gamma-ray activity of the radio galaxy M87 since 2007. During 2008, flaring activity on a timescale of a few days wa…

The 2010 very high energy gamma-ray flare & 10 years of multi-wavelength observations of M 87

The H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +442

Abridged: The giant radio galaxy M 87 with its proximity, famous jet, and very massive black hole provides a unique opportunity to investigate the origin of very high energy (VHE;…

VERITAS Observations of the BL Lac Object PG 1553+113 Between May 2010 and May 2011

Matthew Orr

VERITAS, an array of imaging atmospheric-Cherenkov telescopes, studies blazars in the energy range between ~100 GeV and ~30 TeV. With its excellent sensitivity at these energies, a…

VERITAS Search for VHE Gamma-ray Emission from Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies

The VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, T. Arlen +73

Indirect dark matter searches with ground-based gamma-ray observatories provide an alternative for identifying the particle nature of dark matter that is complementary to that of d…

VERITAS 2008 - 2009 monitoring of the variable gamma-ray source M87

The VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu +84

M87 is a nearby radio galaxy that is detected at energies ranging from radio to VHE gamma-rays. Its proximity and its jet, misaligned from our line-of-sight, enable detailed morpho…

Discovery of very high energy gamma rays from PKS 1424+240 and multiwavelength constraints on its redshift

The VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, The Fermi Collaboration +4

We report the first detection of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission above 140 GeV from PKS 1424+240, a BL Lac object with an unknown redshift. The photon spectrum above 140…
