Milagro Observations of Potential TeV Emitters

ORAL

Abstract

We searched for point sources in Milagro sky maps at the locations in four catalogs of potential TeV emitting sources. Our candidates are selected from the Fermi 2FGL pulsars, Fermi 2FGL extragalactic sources, TeVCat extragalactic sources, and from the BL Lac TeV Candidate list published by Costamante and Ghisellini in 2002. The False Discovery Rate (FDR) statistical procedure is used to select the sources. The FDR procedure controls the fraction of false detections. Our results are presented in this talk.
