A connection between star formation activity and cosmic rays in the starburst galaxy M 82

V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu, T. Arlen +89

Although Galactic cosmic rays (protons and nuclei) are widely believed to be dominantly accelerated by the winds and supernovae of massive stars, definitive evidence of this origin…

A Topological Trigger System for Imaging Atmospheric-Cherenkov Telescopes

M. Schroedter, J. Anderson, K. Byrum +8

A fast trigger system is being designed as a potential upgrade to VERITAS, or as the basis for a future array of imaging atmospheric-Cherenkov telescopes such as AGIS. The scientif…

The TeV Energy Spectrum of Mrk 421 Measured in A High Flaring State

A. Konopelko, W. Cui, C. Duke +1

The BL Lac object (blazar) Mrk 421 was observed during its outburst in April 2004 with the Whipple 10 m telescope for a total of about 24.5 hours. The measured gamma-ray rate varie…
