Very high energy flaring activity of markarian 421 during 2000-2001 as seen by CAT and CELESTE telescopes
- 1. PCC-College de France, 11 pl. Marcelin Berthelot, Paris 75231, (France)
Description
During the observation seasons 2000-2001, Mkn 421 showed a very strong flaring activity, with variability time-scales sometimes as short as one hour. We report here on the observations made with the CAT and CELESTE Cerenkov telescopes. VHE spectral properties of Mkn 421, as measured by CAT above 250 GeV, are compared and discussed for both seasons
