Very High-Energy Gamma-Ray Follow-Up Program Using Neutrino Triggers from IceCube
IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, K. Abraham +537
We describe and report the status of a neutrino-triggered program in IceCube that generates real-time alerts for gamma-ray follow-up observations by atmospheric-Cherenkov telescope…
Contributions of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) to the 6th International Symposium on High-Energy Gamma-Ray Astronomy (Gamma 2016)
The CTA Consortium, :, A. Abchiche +1387
List of contributions from the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) Consortium presented at the 6th International Symposium on High-Energy Gamma-Ray Astronomy (Gamma 2016), July 11-15,…
A Search for Very High-Energy Gamma Rays from the Missing Link Binary Pulsar J1023+0038 with VERITAS
E. Aliu, S. Archambault, A. Archer +82
The binary millisecond radio pulsar PSR J1023+0038 exhibits many characteristics similar to the gamma-ray binary system PSR B1259--63/LS 2883, making it an ideal candidate for the…
Very-high-energy observations of the binaries V 404 Cyg and 4U 0115+634 during giant X-ray outbursts
A. Archer, W. Benbow, R. Bird +62
Transient X-ray binaries produce major outbursts in which the X-ray flux can increase over the quiescent level by factors as large as . The low-mass X-ray binary V 404 Cyg an…
Development and testing of cost-effective, 6 cm x 6 cm MCP-based photodetectors for fast timing applications
Jingbo Wang, Karen Byrum, Marcel Demarteau +8
Micro-channel plate (MCP)-based photodetectors are capable of picosecond level time resolution and sub-mm level position resolution, which makes them a perfect candidate for the ne…
VERITAS and Multiwavelength Observations of the BL Lacertae Object 1ES 1741+196
VERITAS Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault +85
We present results from multiwavelength observations of the BL Lacertae object 1ES 1741+196, including results in the very-high-energy -ray regime using the Very Energetic Radia…
Upper limits from five years of blazar observations with the VERITAS Cherenkov telescopes
S. Archambault, A. Archer, W. Benbow +78
Between the beginning of its full-scale scientific operations in 2007 and 2012, the VERITAS Cherenkov telescope array observed more than 130 blazars; of these, 26 were detected as…
A Brief Technical History of the Large-Area Picosecond Photodetector (LAPPD) Collaboration
Bernhard W. Adams, Klaus Attenkofer, Mircea Bogdan +38
The Large Area Picosecond PhotoDetector (LAPPD) Collaboration was formed in 2009 to develop large-area photodetectors capable of time resolutions measured in pico-seconds, with acc…
MCP-based Photodetectors for Cryogenic Applications
Ranjan Dharmapalan, Anil Mane, Karen Byrum +9
The Argonne MCP-based photo detector is an offshoot of the Large Area Pico-second Photo Detector (LAPPD) project, wherein 6 cm x 6 cm sized detectors are made at Argonne National L…
A Search for Brief Optical Flashes Associated with the SETI Target KIC 8462852
A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +78
The F-type star KIC 8462852 has recently been identified as an exceptional target for SETI (search for extraterrestrial intelligence) observations. We describe an analysis methodol…
Exceptionally bright TeV flares from the binary LS I +61 303
VERITAS Collaboration, S. Archambault, A. Archer +86
The TeV binary system LS I +61 303 is known for its regular, non-thermal emission pattern which traces the orbital period of the compact object in its 26.5 day orbit around…
