Scientific paper

The VERITAS (Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System) experiment consisting of four Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (12m diameter each) is located in Southern Arizona, USA. VERITAS was fully comissioned in spring 2007 and is one of the most sensitive experiments for the measurement of very high energy gamma-rays in the energy range between 100GeV and several 10TeV. VERITAS observed a variety of blazars and AGN (e.g. M87), studied their spectral and temporal behaviour and discovered new sources of this class as well. Several blazar observations (e.g. Mrk421 and 1ES2344+514) were accompanied by MWL observations with other experiments. The results of the observations and implications are presented.
