Observation of Markarian 421 in TeV gamma rays over a 14-year time span
V. A. Acciari, T. Arlen, T. Aune +73
The variability of the blazar Markarian 421 in TeV gamma rays over a 14-year time period has been explored with the Whipple 10 m telescope. It is shown that the dynamic range of it…
Snowmass Cosmic Frontiers 6 (CF6) Working Group Summary --The Bright Side of the Cosmic Frontier: Cosmic Probes of Fundamental Physics
J. J. Beatty, A. E. Nelson, A. Olinto +62
Report of the CF6 Working Group at Snowmass 2013. Topics addressed include ultra-high energy cosmic rays, neutrinos, gamma rays, baryogenesis, and experiments probing the fundament…
Long term observations of B2 1215+30 with VERITAS
VERITAS collaboration, E. Aliu, S. Archambault +82
We report on VERITAS observations of the BL Lac object B2 1215+30 between 2008 and 2012. During this period, the source was detected at very high energies (VHE; E > 100 GeV) by VER…
Multiwavelength observations and modeling of 1ES 1959+650 in a low flux state
VERITAS Collaboration, E. Aliu, S. Archambault +82
We report on the VERITAS observations of the high-frequency peaked BL Lac object 1ES 1959+650 in the period 2007-2011. This source is detected at TeV energies by VERITAS at 16.4 st…
Discovery of TeV Gamma-ray Emission Toward Supernova Remnant SNR G78.2+2.1
E. Aliu, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +97
We report the discovery of an unidentified, extended source of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission, VER J2019+407, within the radio shell of the supernova remnant SNR G78.2+2…
The Extragalactic Background Light (EBL): A Probe of Fundamental Physics and a Record of Structure Formation in the Universe
Frank Krennrich, Matthew Orr
A brief white paper discussing the connections between the Extragalactic Background Light (EBL) and fundamental physics through gamma-ray observations is provided.
VERITAS Observations of High-Frequency-Peaked BL Lac Objects
M. Orr
Here we present highlights from VERITAS observations of high-frequency-peaked BL Lac objects (HBLs). We discuss the key science motivations for observing these sources -- including…
