高频尖峰BL Lac天体的VERITAS观测

VERITAS Observations of High-Frequency-Peaked BL Lac Objects

M. Orr

摘要:

在这里,我们提出了从VERITAS观测高频峰值BL Lac对象(HBLs)的亮点。我们讨论了观察这些光源的关键科学动机--包括执行对于了解HBL中的发射机制至关重要的多波长活动、限制河外背景光的强度和光谱形状以及限制星系际磁场的强度。

英文摘要:

Here we present highlights from VERITAS observations of high-frequency-peaked BL Lac objects (HBLs). We discuss the key science motivations for observing these sources -- including performing multiwavelength campaigns critical to understanding the emission mechanisms at work in HBLs, constraining the intensity and spectra shape of the extragalactic background light, and placing limits on the strength of the intergalactic magnetic field.
