Detection of TeV Gamma Rays from the BL Lac Object 1ES1959+650 with the Whipple 10m Telescope
J. Holder, VERITAS collaboration
We present the first strong detection of very high energy gamma-rays from the close (z=0.048) X-ray selected BL Lacertae object 1ES1959+650. Observations were made with the Whipple…
