Veritas: Status c. 2009

T. C. Weekes, the VERITAS Collaboration

VERITAS is a ground-based gamma-ray observatory that uses the imaging atmospheric Cherenkov technique and operates in the very high-energy (VHE) region of the gamma- ray spectrum f…

Very High Energy Observations of Gamma-Ray Burst Locations with the Whipple Telescope

D. Horan, R. W. Atkins, H. M. Badran +56

Gamma-ray burst (GRB) observations at very high energies (VHE, E > 100 GeV) can impose tight constraints on some GRB emission models. Many GRB afterglow models predict a VHE compon…

TeV Gamma-Ray Observations of the Perseus and Abell 2029 Galaxy Clusters

J. S. Perkins, H. M. Badran, G. Blaylock +41

Galaxy clusters might be sources of TeV gamma rays emitted by high-energy protons and electrons accelerated by large scale structure formation shocks, galactic winds, or active gal…
