Scientific paper

The Milagro gamma-ray observatory, located near Los Alamos, NM, employs a water-Cherenkov technique to continuously monitor the northern sky for astrophysical gammaray emission near 1 TeV. Milagro's high duty-cycle (˜95%) and wide aperture (˜2 sr) allow for the detection of flaring behavior associated with TeV AGN, even during daytime transits. Results are presented from a search of the Milagro 2000-2001 data set for TeV emission from selected AGN, including the bright flare of Mrk421 in early 2001.
