Observation of M87 with the Whipple 10m telescope

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The Whipple 10-m telescope was used to observe M87 since 2000. No significant gamma-ray signal was found and upper limits compared to the HEGRA detection suggest the source may be variable. We found weak evidence for a correlation with the X-ray activity in 2000-2001 but this tendency did not persist in 2002-2003.
