DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Nahee Park (University of Chicago)\nVERITAS is an ar
 ray of four imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes designed to observe g
 amma-ray emission from astrophysical objects in the energy range from 85 G
 eV to > 30 TeV. Located at the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory in Arizon
 a\, VERITAS has operated successfully over seven years with two major upgr
 ades that improved the performance of the array. The scientific goals of V
 ERITAS include understanding the acceleration\, interactions\, and propaga
 tion of TeV particles by observing very high energy gamma rays from extrem
 e environments in both Galactic and extragalactic sources. VERITAS also co
 nducts searches for dark matter in the TeV energy range and performs studi
 es of cosmic rays. In this presentation\, we will summarize the current st
 atus of VERITAS and highlight recent scientific results.\n\nhttps://indico
