AbstractWe have observed eight AGN since 1993 in the energy region above several hundred GeV using the CANGAROO telescopes. We observed Mrk 421 for ten nights with the CANGAROO-II 10 m telescope during its active state in early 2001 using the very large zenith angle technique. Our preliminary result implies the detection of gamma-ray emission from Mrk 421 in the energy range above 9.3 TeV. The high energy peaked BL Lacs (HBLs) PKS 2005–489 and PKS 2155–304 have been also observed. No statistically significant signals are found for both HBLs and flux upper limits are obtained. A summary of results of observations of AGN is presented in this paper.

AbstractWe present the most up-to-date and complete multi-wavelength correlation analysis on luminosity properties of TeV BL Lacs. Correlation function (power law or linear) parameters are calculated based on linear regression method. Using the lower energy luminosities of a sample of 182 non-TeV BL Lacs and the generated functions, minimum level of VHE gamma-ray emission was calculated for each non-TeV BL Lacs. This multi wavelength prediction method gives us a list of best candidates to be observed with current generation of Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes.
