H., Shang, R., Tak, D., Ticoras, M., Tucci, J. V., Wong, S. L., Collaboration, The VERITAS

We use the VERITAS imaging air Cherenkov Telescope (IACT) array to obtain the first measured angular diameter of $\beta$ UMa at visual wavelengths using stellar intensity interferometry (SII) and independently constrain the limb-darkened angular diam

Decadal VERITAS Observation of LS I +61$^{\circ}$303 : Detection of TeV emission around the entire orbit

Autor: Kar, Payel, Collaboration, The VERITAS

The TeV binary system \lsi has a compact object in an eccentric orbit around a Be star about 2 kpc from Earth. \lsi exhibits modulated gamma-ray emission around its 26.5 days orbit, mostly detectable at TeV energies around its apastron passage, with

VHE Observations of Galactic binary systems with VERITAS

Autor: Maier, Gernot, Collaboration, the VERITAS

Gamma-ray binaries are variable sources of GeV-to-TeV photons with the peak in their spectral energy distributions above 100 MeV. There are only five Galactic gamma-ray binaries known and the processes which govern particle acceleration, non-thermal

VERITAS and VLBA Observations of HESS J1943+213

Autor: Shahinyan, Karlen, Collaboration, the VERITAS

HESS J1943+213 is a very high energy (VHE; 100 GeV) {\gamma}-ray source in the direction of the Galactic plane. 38 hours of deep VERITAS observations taken over two seasons detect the source with ~20 {\sigma} significance. Monitoring observations of
