Reanalysis of the high energy cutoff of the 1997 Mkn 501 TeV energy spectrum

HEGRA Collaboration, F. Aharonian

Data taken with the HEGRA system of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes during the 1997 flares of Mkn 501 are reanalyzed using an algorithm providing improved energy resolutio…

The TeV Energy Spectrum of Mkn 501 Measured with the Stereoscopic Telescope System of HEGRA during 1998 and 1999

The HEGRA Collaboration, F. Aharonian, A. Akhperjanian +1

During 1997, the BL Lac object Mkn 501 went into an extraordinary state of high X-ray and TeV gamma-ray activity, lasting more than 6 months. In this paper we report on the TeV emi…

Rejection of the hypothesis that Markarian 501 TeV photons are pure Bose-Einstein condensates

The HEGRA Collaboration, F. Aharonian, A. Akhperjanian +1

The energy spectrum of the Blazar type galaxy Markarian 501 (Mrk 501) as measured by the High-Energy-Gamma-Ray Astronomy (HEGRA) air Cerenkov telescopes extends beyond 16 TeV and c…

Correlated intense X-ray and TeV activity of Mrk~501 in 1998 June

Rita M. Sambruna

We present exactly simultaneous X-ray and TeV monitoring with {\it RXTE} and HEGRA of the TeV blazar Mrk 501 during 15 days in 1998 June. After an initial period of very low flux a…
