A decade after the discovery of TeV gamma-rays from the blazar Mrk 421 (Punch et al. 1992), the list of TeV blazars has increased to five BL Lac objects: Mrk 421 (Punch et al. 1992…
A Search for Pulsed TeV Gamma Ray Emission from the Crab Pulsar
A. M. Burdett, I. H. Bond, P. J. Boyle +28
We present the results of a search for pulsed TeV emission from the Crab pulsar using the Whipple Observatory's 10m gamma-ray telescope. The direction of the Crab pulsar was observ…

A next generation atmospheric Cherenkov observatory is described based on the Whipple Observatory -ray telescope. A total of nine such imaging telescopes will be deployed in an…
Search for TeV Counterparts in Gamma-Ray Bursts
P. J. Boyle, J. H. Buckley, A. M. Burdett +25
Based on BACODINE network notification the Whipple Observatory gamma-ray telescope has been used to search for the delayed TeV counterpart to BATSE-detected gamma-ray bursts. In th…
