Description
VERITAS is one of the world’s most sensitive very-high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray observatories. Approximately half of its observations are targeted on active galactic nuclei (AGN). We will describe our recent efforts to reprocess the historical archive of these AGN observations and produce a standardized, first VERITAS TeV AGN Catalog. We will present the current status of catalog, including results, and will describe recent new detections and discoveries of AGNs at VHE using VERITAS.
