Highlight Talk: Recent Results from VERITAS
R. A. Ong, V. A. Acciari, T. Arlen +79
VERITAS is a state-of-the-art ground-based gamma-ray observatory that operates in the very high-energy (VHE) region of 100 GeV to 50 TeV. The observatory consists of an array of fo…
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…
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…
Highlights from the Whipple 10-m Blazar Monitoring Program
Ana Pichel
Approximately 25 blazars are know to emit VHE (E>100 GeV) gamma rays. Understanding these powerful objects requires long-term, intense, monitoring observations since they exhibit s…
The Fluorescence Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, J. Abraham, P. Abreu +515
The Pierre Auger Observatory is a hybrid detector for ultra-high energy cosmic rays. It combines a surface array to measure secondary particles at ground level together with a fluo…
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…
