A new measurement of the altitude dependence of the atmospheric muon intensity
J. J. Beatty, S. Coutu, S. A. Minnick +12
We present a new measurement of atmospheric muons made during an ascent of the High Energy Antimatter Telescope balloon experiment. The muon charge ratio mu+/mu- as a function of a…
A Search for TeV Gamma-Ray Emission from High-Peaked Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars Using the Whipple Air-Cherenkov Telescope
A. D. Falcone, the VERITAS collaboration
Blazars have traditionally been separated into two broad categories based upon their optical emission characteristics; BL Lacs, with faint or no emission lines, and flat spectrum r…
TeV Gamma-Ray Observations of the Galactic Center
K. Kosack, the VERITAS Collaboration
We report a possible detection of TeV gamma-rays from the Galactic Center by the Whipple 10m gamma-ray telescope. Twenty-six hours of data were taken over an extended period from 1…
Constraints on the Very High Energy Emission from BL Lacertae Objects
D. Horan
We present results from observations of 29 BL Lacertae objects, taken with the Whipple Observatory 10 m Gamma-Ray Telescope between 1995 and 2000. The observed objects are mostly a…
Search for High Energy Gamma Rays from an X-ray Selected Blazar Sample
I. de la Calle Perez, the VERITAS Collaboration
Our understanding of blazars has been greatly increased in recent years by extensive multi-wavelength observations, particularly in the radio, X-ray and gamma-ray regions. Over the…
The Composition of Cosmic Rays at the Knee
S. P. Swordy, L. F. Fortson, J. Hinton +21
The observation of a small change in spectral slope, or 'knee' in the fluxes of cosmic rays near energies 10^15 eV has caused much speculation since its discovery over 40 years ago…
