Spectral Energy Distribution of Markarian 501: Quiescent State vs. Extreme Outburst
The VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, T. Arlen +225
The very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) blazar Markarian 501 has a well-studied history of extreme spectral variability and is an excellent laboratory for studying the physical pro…
Insights Into the High-Energy Gamma-ray Emission of Markarian 501 from Extensive Multifrequency Observations in the Fermi Era
LAT collaboration, A. A. Abdo et al., the MAGIC collaboration +6
We report on the gamma-ray activity of the blazar Mrk 501 during the first 480 days of Fermi operation. We find that the average LAT gamma-ray spectrum of Mrk 501 can be well descr…
Multi-wavelength Observations of the Flaring Gamma-ray Blazar 3C 66A in 2008 October
LAT collaboration, A. A. Abdo et al., the VERITAS collaboration +4
The BL Lacertae object 3C 66A was detected in a flaring state by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) and VERITAS in 2008 October. In addition to these gamma-ray observations, F-GA…
VERITAS Search for VHE Gamma-ray Emission from Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies
The VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, T. Arlen +73
Indirect dark matter searches with ground-based gamma-ray observatories provide an alternative for identifying the particle nature of dark matter that is complementary to that of d…
VERITAS 2008 - 2009 monitoring of the variable gamma-ray source M87
The VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu +84
M87 is a nearby radio galaxy that is detected at energies ranging from radio to VHE gamma-rays. Its proximity and its jet, misaligned from our line-of-sight, enable detailed morpho…
The Discovery of gamma-Ray Emission From The Blazar RGB J0710+591
V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu, T. Arlen +234
The high-frequency-peaked BL Lacertae object RGB J0710+591 was observed in the very high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) wave band by the VERITAS array of atmospheric Cherenkov telescope…
Observations of the shell-type SNR Cassiopeia A at TeV energies with VERITAS
