Impacts of Voids, Line of Sight Interactions, and Local Emission Environment on Detectability of Gamma-Ray AGN

Ollie Jackson, Amy Furniss, Olivier Hervet +2

Cosmic voids may have novel affects on the propagation of high-energy photons. We consider the fraction of the line of sight that intersect voids (termed \enquote{voidiness}). A pr…

Optical spectroscopy of blazars for the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory- IV

B. Rajput, P. Goldoni, W. Max-Moerbeck +17

Blazars, including BL Lacs and FSRQs, are the most luminous extragalactic γ-ray sources. They account for about 56% of the sources listed in the recent Fermi-LAT catalog (4FGL-DR4)…

VERITAS and multiwavelength observations of the Blazar B3 2247+381 in response to an IceCube neutrino alert

Atreya Acharyya, Colin B. Adams, Priyadarshini Bangale +494

While the sources of the diffuse astrophysical neutrino flux detected by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory are still largely unknown, one of the promising methods used towards under…

VERITAS Discovery of VHE Emission from the Radio Galaxy 3C 264: A Multi-Wavelength Study

A. Archer, W. Benbow, R. Bird +67

The radio source 3C 264, hosted by the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 3862, was observed with VERITAS between February 2017 and May 2019. These deep observations resulted in the disco…

Redshift measurement of Fermi Blazars for the Cherenkov Telescope Array

P. Goldoni, S. Pita, C. Boisson +3

Blazars are active galactic nuclei, and the most numerous High Energy (HE) and Very High Energy (VHE) gamma-ray emitters. Their optical emission is often dominated by non-thermal,…

On the Redshift of the Very High Energy Blazar 3C 66A

Amy Furniss, Michele Fumagalli, Charles Danforth +2

As a bright gamma-ray source, 3C 66A is of great interest to the high-energy astrophysics community, having a potential for placing cosmological constraints on models for the extra…

A search of CO emission lines in blazars: the low molecular gas content of BL Lac objects compared to quasars

Michele Fumagalli, Miroslava Dessauges-Zavadsky, Amy Furniss +4

BL Lacertae (Lac) objects that are detected at very-high energies (VHE) are of fundamental importance to study multiple astrophysical processes, including the physics of jets, the…
