New Astrophysical Opportunities Exploiting Spatio-Temporal Optical Correlations

C. Barbieri, M. K. Daniel, W. J. de Wit +8

The space-time correlations of streams of photons can provide fundamentally new channels of information about the Universe. Today's astronomical observations essentially measure ce…

The potential for intensity interferometry with gamma-ray telescope arrays

W. J. de Wit, S. Le Bohec, J. A. Hinton +4

Intensity interferometry exploits a quantum optical effect in order to measure objects with extremely small angular scales. The first experiment to use this technique was the Narra…

Stellar Intensity Interferometry with Air Cherenkov Telescope arrays

S. Le Bohec, M. Daniel, W. J. de Wit +5

The present generation of ground-based Very High Energy (VHE) gamma-ray observatories consist of arrays of up to four large (> 12m diameter) light collectors quite similar to those…

Gamma-Hadron Separation Methods for the VERITAS Array of Four Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes

H. Krawczynski, D. A. Carter-Lewis, C. Duke +4

Ground-based arrays of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes have emerged as the most sensitive gamma-ray detectors in the energy range of about 100 GeV and above. The strengths…

Multiwavelength Observations of 1ES 1959+650, One Year After the Strong Outburst of 2002

K. Gutierrez, H. M. Badran, S. M. Bradbury +33

In April-May 2003, the blazar 1ES 1959+650 showed an increased level of X-ray activity. This prompted a multiwavelength observation campaign with the Whipple 10 m gamma-ray telesco…

Whipple Observations of BL Lac Objects

M. D'Vali, I. H. Bond, S. M. Bradbury +23

Only BL Lac objects have been detected as extragalactic sources of very high energy (E > 300 GeV) gamma rays. Using the Whipple Observatory Gamma-ray Telescope, we have attempted t…
