A Search for TeV Gamma-ray Emission from Pulsar Tails by VERITAS

Wystan Benbow, A. Brill, James Buckley +56

We report on the search for very-high-energy gamma-ray emission from the regions around three nearby supersonic pulsars (PSR B0355+54, PSR J0357+3205 and PSR J1740+1000) that exhib…

Detection of the Crab Nebula with the 9.7 m Prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope

C. B. Adams, R. Alfaro, G. Ambrosi +105

The Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope (SCT) is a telescope concept proposed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array. It employs a dual-mirror optical design to remove comatic aberrations ov…

Verification of the Optical System of the 9.7-m Prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope

C. Adams, R. Alfaro, G. Ambrosi +77

For the first time in the history of ground-based -ray astronomy, the on-axis performance of the dual mirror, aspheric, aplanatic Schwarzschild-Couder optical system has been de…

VERITAS Discovery of VHE Emission from the Radio Galaxy 3C 264: A Multi-Wavelength Study

A. Archer, W. Benbow, R. Bird +67

The radio source 3C 264, hosted by the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 3862, was observed with VERITAS between February 2017 and May 2019. These deep observations resulted in the disco…

Evidence for proton acceleration up to TeV energies based on VERITAS and Fermi-LAT observations of the Cas A SNR

A. U. Abeysekara, A. Archer, W. Benbow +60

We present a study of -ray emission from the core-collapse supernova remnant Cas~A in the energy range from 0.1GeV to 10TeV. We used 65 hours of VERITAS data to cover 200 GeV -…
