Search for Pulsed TeV Gamma-ray Emission from the Crab Pulsar
R. W. Lessard, I. H. Bond, S. M. Bradbury +23
We present the results of a search for pulsed TeV emission from the Crab pulsar using the Whipple Observatory's 10 m gamma-ray telescope. The direction of the Crab pulsar was obser…
Whipple Observations of BL Lac Objects
M. D'Vali, I. H. Bond, S. M. Bradbury +23
Only BL Lac objects have been detected as extragalactic sources of very high energy (E > 300 GeV) gamma rays. Using the Whipple Observatory Gamma-ray Telescope, we have attempted t…
The Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS)
S. M. Bradbury, I. H. Bond, A. C. Breslin +32
We give an overview of the current status and scientific goals of VERITAS, a proposed hexagonal array of seven 10 m aperture imaging Cherenkov telescopes. The selected site is Mont…
Hour-Scale Multiwavelength Variability in Markarian 421
M. Catanese, I. H. Bond, S. M. Bradbury +36
Markarian 421 was observed for about four days with BeppoSAX and the Whipple Observatory gamma-ray telescope in April 1998. A pronounced, well-defined, flare with hour-scale variab…
Short-timescale Variability in the Broadband Emission of the Blazars Mkn421 and Mkn501
M. J. Carson, B. McKernan, T. Yaqoob +1
We analyse ASCA x-ray data and Whipple γ-ray data from the blazars Mkn421 and Mkn501 for short-timescale variability. We find no evidence for statistically significant (>3σ) variab…
VHE gamma-ray observations of Markarian 501
Whipple Collaboration, A. C. Breslin, I. H. Bond +29
Markarian 501, a nearby (z=0.033) X-ray selected BL Lacertae object, is a well established source of Very High Energy (VHE, E>=300 GeV) gamma rays. Dramatic variability in its gamm…
