CTLearn: Deep Learning for Gamma-ray Astronomy
D. Nieto, A. Brill, Q. Feng +5
CTLearn is a new Python package under development that uses the deep learning technique to analyze data from imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope (IACT) arrays. IACTs use the Ch…
Probing the Properties of the Pulsar Wind in the Gamma-Ray Binary HESS J0632+057 with NuSTAR and VERITAS Observations
A. Archer, W. Benbow, R. Bird +60
HESS J0632+057 is a gamma-ray binary composed of a compact object orbiting a Be star with a period of about days. Extensive X-ray and TeV gamma-ray observations have revealed…
Measurement of the extragalactic background light spectral energy distribution with VERITAS
VERITAS collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, A. Archer +59
The extragalactic background light (EBL), a diffuse photon field in the optical and infrared range, is a record of radiative processes over the Universe's history. Spectral measure…
Camera design and performance of the prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
C. Adams, G. Ambrosi, M. Ambrosio +49
The Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope (SCT) is a candidate technology for a medium-sized telescope within the Cherenkov Telescope Array, the next generation ground based observatory f…
Prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope for the Cherenkov Telescope Array: Commissioning Status of the Optical System
C. Adams, G. Ambrosi, M. Ambrosio +56
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA), with more than 100 telescopes, will be the largest ever ground-based gamma-ray observatory and is expected to greatly improve on both gamma-ray…
VERITAS contributions to the 36th International Cosmic Ray Conference
A. U. Abeysekara, A. Archer, W. Benbow +65
Compilation of papers presented by the VERITAS Collaboration at the 36th International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC), held July 24 through August 1, 2019 in Madison, Wisconsin.
Combined Dark Matter searches towards dwarf spheroidal galaxies with Fermi-LAT, HAWC, HESS, MAGIC and VERITAS
Louise Oakes, Celine Armand, Eric Charles +13
The search for Dark Matter (DM) has great potential to reveal physics beyond the Standard Model. As such, searches for evidence of DM particles are being carried out using a wide r…
A Search for Pulsed Very High-Energy Gamma Rays from Thirteen Young Pulsars in Archival VERITAS Data
A. Archer, W. Benbow, R. Bird +58
We conduct a search for periodic emission in the very high-energy gamma-ray band (VHE; E > 100 GeV) from a total of 13 pulsars in an archival VERITAS data set with a total exposure…
Direct measurement of stellar angular diameters by the VERITAS Cherenkov Telescopes
W. Benbow, R. Bird, A. Brill +54
The angular size of a star is a critical factor in determining its basic properties. Direct measurement of stellar angular diameters is difficult: at interstellar distances stars a…
