Discovery of TeV Gamma-ray Emission from CTA 1 by VERITAS

E. Aliu, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +88

We report the discovery of TeV gamma-ray emission coincident with the shell-type radio supernova remnant (SNR) CTA 1 using the VERITAS gamma-ray observatory. The source, VER J0006+…

Rapid TeV Gamma-Ray Flaring of BL Lacertae

T. Arlen, T. Aune, M. Beilicke +83

We report on the detection of a very rapid TeV gamma-ray flare from BL Lacertae on 2011 June 28 with the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS). The flar…

VERITAS Observations of Six Bright, Hard-Spectrum Fermi-LAT Blazars

E. Aliu, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +84

We report on VERITAS very-high-energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) observations of six blazars selected from the Fermi Large Area Telescope First Source Catalog (1FGL). The gamma-ray emission…

Search for a correlation between very-high-energy gamma rays and giant radio pulses in the Crab pulsar

E. Aliu, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +87

We present the results of a joint observational campaign between the Green Bank radio telescope and the VERITAS gamma-ray telescope, which searched for a correlation between the em…

Constraints on Cosmic Rays, Magnetic Fields, and Dark Matter from Gamma-Ray Observations of the Coma Cluster of Galaxies with VERITAS and Fermi

T. Arlen, T. Aune, M. Beilicke +81

Observations of radio halos and relics in galaxy clusters indicate efficient electron acceleration. Protons should likewise be accelerated, suggesting that clusters may also be sou…

Multiwavelength observations of the AGN 1ES 0414+009 with VERITAS, Fermi-LAT, Swift-XRT, and MDM

E. Aliu, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +85

We present observations of the BL Lac object 1ES 0414+009 in the >200 GeV gamma-ray band by the VERITAS array of Cherenkov telescopes. 1ES 0414+009 was observed by VERITAS between…

GeV Observations of Star-forming Galaxies with \textit{Fermi} LAT

Fermi LAT Collaboration, M. Ackermann, M. Ajello +127

Recent detections of the starburst galaxies M82 and NGC 253 by gamma-ray telescopes suggest that galaxies rapidly forming massive stars are more luminous at gamma-ray energies comp…

VERITAS Observations of the Nova in V407 Cygni

E. Aliu, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +92

We report on very high energy (E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray observations of V407 Cygni, a symbiotic binary that underwent a nova outburst producing 0.1-10 GeV gamma rays during 2010 Marc…

Constraining the High-Energy Emission from Gamma-ray Bursts with Fermi

LAT Collaboration, GBM Collaboration

We examine 288 GRBs detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope's Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) that fell within the field-of-view of Fermi's Large Area Telescope (LAT) during…

IACT observations of gamma-ray bursts: prospects for the Cherenkov Telescope Array

Rudy C. Gilmore, Aurelien Bouvier, Valerie Connaughton +4

Gamma rays at rest frame energies as high as 90 GeV have been reported from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). There is considerable hope that a confi…
