Scientific paper

We propose triggered observations on a candidate blazar for TeV emission. Observations will be triggered following a source detection by VERITAS. VERITAS observations, in turn, may be triggered by a extraordinary flaring activity at longer (optical, X-ray, or gamma-ray) wavelengths. With the increase in sensitivity of the third generation detectors, the TeV source catalog now contains the first two examples of TeV blazars beyond the class of high-frequency peaked BL~Lac objects. The proposed campaign aims at the detection of new TeV blazars with data to allow meaningful studies of their broadband spectral and variability properties. This is an updated re-submission of our accepted, but yet untriggered AO-6 proposal no. 050221.
