Scientific paper

In the 2007 observing season, we performed observations of the extragalactic BL Lac object 1ES1218+304 (red shift of z = 0.182) with the VERITAS imaging air-Cherenkov gamma-ray telescopes, located in southern Arizona at the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory. This source has been previously detected by the MAGIC gamma-ray observatory. Using the GrISU set of standard analysis tools, we have detected 1ES1218+304 with high significance during this observation period. In this talk, I will describe the analysis of the data and the detection of this source, and will compare our observations with the MAGIC results.
