Constraints on the Cosmic Infra-Red Background based on BeppoSAX and CAT spectra of Mkn 501
J. Guy, C. Renault, F. A. Aharonian +2
The TeV and X-ray data obtained by the imaging Cherenkov telescope CAT and X-ray satellite BeppoSAX during the remarkable flare of Mkn 501 in April 16, 1997 are used to constrain t…
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…
Performances of the CAT imaging telescope and some preliminary results on Mkn 180 and the Crab
A. Barrau, R. Bazer-Bachi, H. Cabot +33
The CAT imaging telesope, which uses the Atmospheric Cherenkov Technique to observe TeV gamma-ray sources, has been operating since September 1996. Located in southern France, it f…
Spectrum and Variability of Mrk501 as observed by the CAT Imaging Telescope
A. Barrau, R. Bazer-Bachi, H. Cabot +33
The CAT Imaging Telescope has observed the BL Lac object Markarian 501 between March and August 1997. We report here on the variability over this time including several large flare…
EROS Variable Stars : Discovery of Beat Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud and the effect of metallicity on pulsation
J. P. Beaulieu, M. Krockenberger, D. D. Sasselov +27
We report the discovery of eleven beat Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud, using data obtained by the EROS microlensing survey. Four stars are beating in the fundamental and fi…
Detection of Vhe Gamma-Rays from MRK 501 with the Cat Imaging Telescope
A. Barrau, R. Bazer-Bachi, H. Cabot +33
The CAT imaging telescope on the site on the former solar plant Themis has been observing gamma-rays from Mrk501 above 220 GeV in March and April 1997. This source is shown to be h…
