VERITAS Observations of day-scale flaring of M87 in 2010 April
E. Aliu, T. Arlen, T. Aune +88
VERITAS has been monitoring the very-high-energy (VHE; >100GeV) gamma-ray activity of the radio galaxy M87 since 2007. During 2008, flaring activity on a timescale of a few days wa…
VERITAS Collaboration Contributions to the 32nd International Cosmic Ray Conference
The VERITAS Collaboration, E. Aliu, T. Arlen +96
Compilation of papers contributed by the VERITAS Collaboration to the 32nd International Cosmic Ray Conference, held 11-18 August 2011 in Beijing, China.
Multiwavelength Observations of the Previously Unidentified Blazar RX J0648.7+1516
E. Aliu, T. Aune, M. Beilicke +84
We report on the VERITAS discovery of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma- ray emission above 200 GeV from the high-frequency-peaked BL Lac object RXJ0648.7+1516 (GBJ0648+1516), associate…
The 2010 very high energy gamma-ray flare & 10 years of multi-wavelength observations of M 87
The H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +442
Abridged: The giant radio galaxy M 87 with its proximity, famous jet, and very massive black hole provides a unique opportunity to investigate the origin of very high energy (VHE;…
Semi-Analytic Model for Intergalactic Gamma-Ray Cascades in Extragalactic Magnetic Fields
H. Huan, T. Weisgarber
Primary gamma rays emitted by extragalactic sources, such as blazars, will generate electromagnetic cascades in intergalactic space. These cascades proceed via electron-positron pa…
Detection of Pulsed Gamma Rays Above 100 GeV from the Crab Pulsar
VERITAS Collaboration, E. Aliu, T. Arlen +93
We report the detection of pulsed gamma rays from the Crab pulsar at energies above 100 Gigaelectronvolts (GeV) with the VERITAS array of atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. The dete…
VERITAS Observations of the Unusual Extragalactic Transient Swift J164449.3+573451
E. Aliu, T. Arlen, T. Aune +79
We report on very-high-energy (100 GeV) gamma-ray observations of Swift J164449.3+573451, an unusual transient object first detected by the {\it Swift} Observatory and later det…
A New Model for Gamma-Ray Cascades in Extragalactic Magnetic Fields
H. Huan, T. Weisgarber, T. Arlen +1
Very-high-energy (VHE, E \gtrsim 100 GeV) gamma rays emitted by extragalactic sources, such as blazars, initiate electromagnetic cascades in the intergalactic medium. The cascade p…
