The June 2008 flare of Markarian 421 from optical to TeV energies
The Agile Collaboration, Webt Collaboration, Magic Collaboration +2
We present optical, X-ray, high energy ( GeV) and very high energy ( GeV; VHE) observations of the high-frequency peaked blazar Mrk 421 taken betwee…
The Status and future of ground-based TeV gamma-ray astronomy. A White Paper prepared for the Division of Astrophysics of the American Physical Society
J. Buckley, K. Byrum, B. Dingus +6
In recent years, ground-based TeV gamma-ray observatories have made spectacular discoveries including imaging spectroscopy observations of galactic sources of different classes, an…
VERITAS Observations of the BL Lac Object 1ES 1218+304
Pascal Fortin
The VERITAS collaboration reports the detection of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from the high-frequency-peaked BL Lac object 1ES 1218+304 located at a redshift of z=0.…
The STACEE Ground-Based Gamma-Ray Detector
STACEE Collaboration, D. M. Gingrich, L. M. Boone +17
We describe the design and performance of the Solar Tower Atmospheric Cherenkov Effect Experiment (STACEE) in its complete configuration. STACEE uses the heliostats of a solar ener…
Search for very high energy gamma-rays from WIMP annihilations near the Sun with the Milagro Detector
Milagro Collaboration
The neutralino, the lightest stable supersymmetric particle, is a strong theoretical candidate for the missing astronomical ``dark matter''. A profusion of such neutralinos can acc…
STACEE Observations of Markarian 421 During an Extended Gamma-Ray Outburst
STACEE Collaboration, L. M. Boone, J. A. Hinton +14
The active galaxy Markarian 421 underwent a substantial outburst in early 2001. Between January and May of that year, the STACEE detector was used to observe the source in gamma-ra…
A Survey of the Northern Sky for TeV Point Sources
K. Wang, R. Atkins, W. Benbow +4
A search for steady TeV point sources anywhere in the northern sky has been made with data from the Milagrito air-shower-particle detector. Over 3 x 10**9 events collected from 199…
TeV Observations of Markarian 501 with the Milagrito Water Cherenkov Detector
R. Atkins
The Milagrito water Cherenkov detector near Los Alamos, New Mexico, operated as a sky monitor at energies of a few TeV between February 1997 and May 1998 including the period of th…
Detection of 6 November 1997 Ground Level Event by Milagrito
R. Atkins, W. Benbow, D. Berley +40
Solar Energetic Particles from the 6 November 1997 solar flare/CME(coronal mass ejection) with energies exceeding 10 GeV have been detected by Milagrito, a prototype of the Milagro…
