Scientific paper

The VERITAS Collaboration reports the discovery of very high energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) gamma-ray emission from the source VER J0648+152. This source is consistent with the Fermi-LAT gamma-ray source 1FGL J0648.8+1516 (RA 06 48 49.7, dec +15 16 22, J2000) and the radio and X-ray source RGB J0648+152 (RA 06 48 47.6, dec +15 16 25, J2000), of unknown redshift. The new source was identified as a promising candidate for VHE emission based upon an analysis of >10 GeV photons detected by Fermi-LAT.
