Discovery of very high energy gamma rays from PKS 1424+240 and multiwavelength constraints on its redshift
The VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, The Fermi Collaboration +4
We report the first detection of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission above 140 GeV from PKS 1424+240, a BL Lac object with an unknown redshift. The photon spectrum above 140…
Detection of Extended VHE Gamma Ray Emission from G106.3+2.7 with VERITAS
VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu +80
We report the detection of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from supernova remnant (SNR) G106.3+2.7. Observations performed in 2008 with the VERITAS atmospheric Cherenkov…
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…
VERITAS Upper Limit on the VHE Emission from the Radio Galaxy NGC 1275
VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu +88
The recent detection by the Fermi gamma-ray space telescope of high-energy gamma-rays from the radio galaxy NGC 1275 makes the observation of the very high energy (VHE: E > 100 GeV…
Multiwavelength observations of a TeV-Flare from W Comae
VERITAS collaboration, V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu +167
We report results from an intensive multiwavelength campaign on the intermediate-frequency-peaked BL Lacertae object W Com (z=0.102) during a strong outburst of very high energy ga…
Simultaneous Multiwavelength Observations of Markarian 421 During Outburst
The VERITAS Collaboration, I. de la Calle Perez, A. Ibarra +2
We report on the results of two coordinated multiwavelength campaigns that focused on the blazar Markarian 421 during its 2006 and 2008 outbursts. These campaigns obtained UV and X…
Evidence for long-term Gamma-ray and X-ray variability from the unidentified TeV source HESS J0632+057
VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu +79
HESS J0632+057 is one of only two unidentified very-high-energy gamma-ray sources which appear to be point-like within experimental resolution. It is possibly associated with the m…
