Discovery of Very High-Energy Gamma-Ray Radiation from the BL Lac 1ES 0806+524
VERITAS Collaboration, V. Acciari, E. Aliu +90
The high-frequency-peaked BL-Lacertae object \objectname{1ES 0806+524}, at redshift z=0.138, was observed in the very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray regime by VERITAS between November…
Gamma Ray Burst Section of the White Paper on the Status and Future of Ground-based TeV Gamma-ray Astronomy
A. D. Falcone, D. A. Williams, M. G. Baring +20
This is a report on the findings of the gamma ray burst working group for the white paper on the status and future of TeV gamma-ray astronomy. The white paper is an APS commissione…
Status of the VERITAS Observatory
J. Holder, V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu +79
VERITAS, an Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (IACT) system for gammma-ray astronomy in the GeV-TeV range, has recently completed its first season of observations with a full…
Tracing high density gas in M 82 and NGC 4038
E. Bayet, C. Lintott, S. Viti +4
We present the first detection of CS in the Antennae galaxies towards the NGC 4038 nucleus, as well as the first detections of two high-J (5-4 and 7-6) CS lines in the center of M…
VERITAS Discovery of >200GeV Gamma-ray Emission from the Intermediate-frequency-peaked BL Lac Object W Comae
VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu +80
We report the detection of very high-energy gamma-ray emission from the intermediate-frequency-peaked BL Lacertae object W Comae (z=0.102) by VERITAS. The source was observed betwe…
A Measurement of the Spatial Distribution of Diffuse TeV Gamma Ray Emission from the Galactic Plane with Milagro
A. A. Abdo, B. Allen, T. Aune +33
Diffuse -ray emission produced by the interaction of cosmic-ray particles with matter and radiation in the Galaxy can be used to probe the distribution of cosmic rays and their…
The Gamma Ray Burst section of the White Paper on the Status and Future of Very High Energy Gamma Ray Astronomy: A Brief Preliminary Report
A. D. Falcone, D. A. Williams, M. G. Baring +19
This is a short report on the preliminary findings of the gamma ray burst (GRB) working group for the white paper on the status and future of very high energy (VHE; >50 GeV) gamma-…
VERITAS Observations of the gamma-Ray Binary LS I +61 303
V. A. Acciari, M. Beilicke, G. Blaylock +74
LS I +61 303 is one of only a few high-mass X-ray binaries currently detected at high significance in very high energy gamma-rays. The system was observed over several orbital cycl…
Observation of gamma-ray emission from the galaxy M87 above 250 GeV with VERITAS
V. A. Acciari, M. Beilicke, G. Blaylock +74
The multiwavelength observation of the nearby radio galaxy M87 provides a unique opportunity to study in detail processes occurring in Active Galactic Nuclei from radio waves to Te…
