A search for spectral hysteresis and energy-dependent time lags from X-ray and TeV gamma-ray observations of Mrk 421
A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +220
Blazars are variable emitters across all wavelengths over a wide range of timescales, from months down to minutes. It is therefore essential to observe blazars simultaneously at di…
Very-high-energy observations of the binaries V 404 Cyg and 4U 0115+634 during giant X-ray outbursts
A. Archer, W. Benbow, R. Bird +62
Transient X-ray binaries produce major outbursts in which the X-ray flux can increase over the quiescent level by factors as large as . The low-mass X-ray binary V 404 Cyg an…
Discovery of Very High Energy Gamma Rays from 1ES 1440+122
VERITAS Collaboration, S. Archambault, A. Archer +87
The BL Lacertae object 1ES 1440+122 was observed in the energy range from 85 GeV to 30 TeV by the VERITAS array of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. The observations, taken…
Of Genes and Machines: application of a combination of machine learning tools to astronomy datasets
S. Heinis, S. Kumar, S. Gezari +8
We apply a combination of a Genetic Algorithms (GA) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) machine learning algorithm to solve two important problems faced by the astronomical community…
A Search for Brief Optical Flashes Associated with the SETI Target KIC 8462852
A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +78
The F-type star KIC 8462852 has recently been identified as an exceptional target for SETI (search for extraterrestrial intelligence) observations. We describe an analysis methodol…
Exceptionally bright TeV flares from the binary LS I +61 303
VERITAS Collaboration, S. Archambault, A. Archer +86
The TeV binary system LS I +61 303 is known for its regular, non-thermal emission pattern which traces the orbital period of the compact object in its 26.5 day orbit around…
