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…
Search for TeV Gamma-Rays from Shell-Type Supernova Remnants
Whipple Collaboration, R. W. Lessard, I. H. Bond +26
If cosmic rays with energies <100 TeV originate in the galaxy and are accelerated in shock waves in shell-type supernova remnants (SNRs), gamma-rays will be produced as the result…
Tev Blazars: Status of Observations
F. Krennrich, S. D. Biller, I. H. Bond +28
The close relation between ground-based TeV observations and satellite borne -ray measurements has been important for the understanding of blazars. The observations which involv…
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…
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…
