Discovery of >350 GeV Gamma Rays from the BL Lacertae Object 1ES 2344+514

M. Catanese, C. W. Akerlof, H. M. Badran +31

We present the discovery of >350 GeV gamma-ray emission from the BL Lacertae object 1ES 2344+514 with the Whipple Observatory 10m gamma-ray telescope. This is the third BL Lac obje…

A Search for TeV Emission from Unidentified Sources in the Galactic Plane

J. H. Buckley, P. J. Boyle, S. M. Bradbury +24

The ~70 unidentified sources of the EGRET sky survey may be one of its most important legacies. The identification of these sources at other wavelengths is critical to understandin…

TeV Observations of the Variability and Spectrum of Markarian 501

J. Quinn, I. H. Bond, P. J. Boyle +27

Markarian 501 is only the second extragalactic source to be detected with high statistical certainty at TeV energies; it is similar in many ways to Markarian 421. The Whipple Obser…

First Results from a Search for TeV Emission from BL Lacs

M. Catanese, P. J. Boyle, J. H. Buckley +22

Two active galactic nuclei have been detected at TeV energies using the atmospheric Cherenkov imaging technique. The Whipple Observatory gamma-ray telescope has been used to observ…

Constraints on Cosmic-Ray Origin Theories from TeV Gamma-Ray Observations

R. W. Lessard, P. J. Boyle, S. M. Bradbury +23

If supernova remnants (SNRs) are the sites of cosmic-ray acceleration, the associated nuclear interactions should result in observable fluxes of TeV gamma-rays from the nearest SNR…

Tev Observations of the Variability and Spectrum of Markarian 421

J. E. McEnery, I. H. Bond, P. J. Boyle +27

Markarian 421 was the first extragalactic source to be detected with high statistical certainty at TeV energies. The Whipple Observatory gamma-ray telescope has been used to observ…

A search for correlations of TeV gamma-rays with ultra-high energy cosmic rays

C. W. Akerlof, S. Biller, P. Boyle +25

A search was conducted for TeV gamma-rays emitted from the direction of the ultra-high energy cosmic ray detected by the Fly's Eye Experiment with E ~ 3 x 10**20 eV. No enhancement…
