Abstract

Description

The CELESTE atmospheric Cherenkov detector, running until June 2004 at the Themis solar facility, has taken data on compact sources such as pulsars and blazars. We will take stock of the experiment, in particular regarding the latest improvements of the detector simulation and data analysis. These changes provide us with a new analysis of old data with smaller uncertainties. We present here the evidence for a weak signal from Mrk 501 in 2000-2001.
