Detection of TeV photons from the active galaxy Markarian 421

TL;DR: In this article, the detection of TeV energy photons from the giant elliptical galaxy Markarian 421 using the Whipple Observatory gamma-ray telescope was reported and the signal has a statistical significance of 6 sigma above background and the flux above 0.5 TeV is 0.3 of that from the Crab Nebula.
Journal ArticleDOI

The first VERITAS telescope

Jamie Holder, +77 more
TL;DR: The first atmospheric Cherenkov telescope of VERITAS (the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System) has been in operation since February 2005 and has been used for the first time in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radio Imaging of the Very-High-Energy gamma-Ray Emission Region in the Central Engine of a Radio Galaxy

V. A. Acciari, +385 more
- 24 Jul 2009 - 
TL;DR: Radio and VHE observations of the radio galaxy Messier 87 are revealed, revealing a period of extremely strong VHE gamma-ray flares accompanied by a strong increase of theRadio flux from its nucleus, implying that charged particles are accelerated to very high energies in the immediate vicinity of the black hole.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insights into the high-energy γ-ray emission of Markarian 501 from extensive multifrequency observations in the Fermi era

A. A. Abdo, +474 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the gamma-ray activity of the blazar Mrk 501 during the first 480 days of Fermi operation was reported, and it was shown that the energy distribution of the freshly accelerated radiating electrons required to fit the time-averaged data has a broken power-law form in the energy range 0.3GeV-10TeV, with spectral indices 2.2 and 2.20.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of Pulsed Gamma Rays Above 100 GeV from the Crab Pulsar

E. Aliu, +94 more
- 07 Oct 2011 - 
TL;DR: This detection constrains the mechanism and emission region of gamma-ray radiation in the pulsar’s magnetosphere and requires that these gamma rays be produced more than 10 stellar radii from the neutron star.
