Measurement of the Crab Flux Above 60 GeV with the CELESTE Cherenkov Telescope

M. De Naurois, J. Holder, R. Bazer-Bachi +29

We have converted the former solar electrical plant THEMIS (French Pyrenees) into an atmospheric Cherenkov detector called CELESTE, which records gamma rays above 30 GeV (7E24 Hz).…

Temporal and spectral gamma-ray properties of Mkn421 above 250 GeV from CAT observations between 1996 and 2000

F. Piron, A. Djannati-Atai, M. Punch +22

The gamma-ray emission above 250 GeV from the BL Lac object Markarian 421 was observed by the CAT Cherenkov imaging telescope between December, 1996, and June, 2000. In 1998, the s…

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…
