A Three-Year Multi-Wavelength Study of the Very High Energy Gamma-ray Blazar 1ES 0229+200
E. Aliu, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +83
The high-frequency-peaked BL Lacertae object 1ES 0229+200 is a relatively distant (z = 0.1396), hard-spectrum (Gamma ~ 2.5), very-high-energy-emitting (E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray blaza…
Long-term TeV and X-ray Observations of the Gamma-ray Binary HESS J0632+057
VERITAS Collaboration, E. Aliu, S. Archambault +297
HESS J0632+057 is the only gamma-ray binary known so far whose position in the sky allows observations with ground-based observatories both in the northern and southern hemispheres…
VERITAS Observations of the Microquasar Cygnus X-3
S. Archambault, M. Beilicke, W. Benbow +76
We report results from TeV gamma-ray observations of the microquasar Cygnus X-3. The observations were made with the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITA…
Multiwavelength Observations of The TeV Binary LS I +61 303 with VERITAS, Fermi-LAT and Swift-XRT During a TeV Outburst
E. Aliu, S. Archambault, B. Behera +71
We present the results of a multiwavelength observational campaign on the TeV binary system LS I +61 303 with the VERITAS telescope array (>200 GeV), Fermi-LAT (0.3-300 GeV), and S…
Long term observations of B2 1215+30 with VERITAS
VERITAS collaboration, E. Aliu, S. Archambault +82
We report on VERITAS observations of the BL Lac object B2 1215+30 between 2008 and 2012. During this period, the source was detected at very high energies (VHE; E > 100 GeV) by VER…
First Results from NuSTAR Observations of Mkn 421
M. Baloković, M. Ajello, R. D. Blandford +34
Mkn 421 is a nearby active galactic nucleus dominated at all wavelengths by a very broad non-thermal continuum thought to arise from a relativistic jet seen at a small angle to the…
A search for enhanced very high energy gamma-ray emission from the March 2013 Crab Nebula flare
The VERITAS Collaboration, E. Aliu, S. Archambault +76
In March 2013, a flaring episode from the Crab Nebula lasting ~2 weeks was detected by the Fermi-LAT (Large Area Telescope on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope). VERITAS pr…
VERITAS contributions to the 33rd International Cosmic Ray Conference
VERITAS Collaboration, E. Aliu, S. Archambault +86
Compilation of papers contributed by the VERITAS Collaboration to the 33rd International Cosmic Ray Conference, held 2-9 July, 2013, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Discovery of a new TeV gamma-ray source: VER J0521+211
VERITAS Collaboration, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +83
We report the detection of a new TeV gamma-ray source, VER J0521+211, based on observations made with the VERITAS imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope array. These observations…
Multiwavelength observations and modeling of 1ES 1959+650 in a low flux state
VERITAS Collaboration, E. Aliu, S. Archambault +82
We report on the VERITAS observations of the high-frequency peaked BL Lac object 1ES 1959+650 in the period 2007-2011. This source is detected at TeV energies by VERITAS at 16.4 st…
Discovery of TeV Gamma-ray Emission Toward Supernova Remnant SNR G78.2+2.1

We report the discovery of an unidentified, extended source of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission, VER J2019+407, within the radio shell of the supernova remnant SNR G78.2+2…
The Blazar Emission Environment: Insight from Soft X-ray Absorption
A. Furniss, M. Fumagalli, A. Falcone +1
Collecting experimental insight into the relativistic particle populations and emission mechanisms at work within TeV-emitting blazar jets, which are spatially unresolvable in most…
The Firm Redshift Lower Limit of the Most Distant TeV-Detected Blazar PKS 1424+240
A. Furniss, D. A. Williams, C. Danforth +7
We present the redshift lower limit of z>0.6035 for the very-high-energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) emitting blazar PKS 1424+240 (PG 1424+240). This limit is inferred from Lyman beta and gam…
VERITAS Results from Deep Exposure on the Distant FSRQ 4C +55.17
