Variable stars towards the bulge of M31: the AGAPE catalogue

R. Ansari, M. Auriere, P. Baillon +15

We present the AGAPE astrometric and photometric catalogue of 1579 variable stars in a 14'x10' field centred on M31. This work is the first survey devoted to variable stars in the…

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…

AgapeZ1: a Large Amplification Microlensing Event or an Odd Variable Star Towards the Inner Bulge of M31

R. Ansari, M. Auriere, P. Baillon +14

AgapeZ1 is the brightest and the shortest duration microlensing candidate event found in the Agape data. It occured only 42" from the center of M31. Our photometry shows that the h…

A new analysis method for very high definition Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes as applied to the CAT telescope

S. Le Bohec, B. Degrange, M. Punch +33

A new method of shower-image analysis is presented which appears very powerful as applied to those Cherenkov Imaging Telescopes with very high definition imaging capability. It pro…
