Observations of Galactic Pulsars and Shell-Type SNRs with the Whipple 10 m Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope
Abstract
Observations of pulsar systems and supernova remnants have been conducted at the Whipple Observatory using the 10 m imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope. Since the summer of 1999, a high resolution 490 pixel camera has been in place yielding a significant increase in detector sensitivity. We present the results of these observations and the implications they have on the various theories of very high energy emissions.
