Search for 10 TeV Gamma-Rays from the Nearby AGNs with the Tibet Air Shower Array

The detection by EGRET[1] of gamma-rays from more than 50 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) allowed us to expect these objects to be the sources of extragalactic cosmic rays at very high energy. The TeV gamma-rays from nearby BL Lac objects of the AGNs examined were detected by the Whipple Observatory collaboration[2]. In this paper, we present the results given by the Tibet air shower array on the search for 10 TeV gamma-ray emission from 18 relatively nearby AGNs with redshifts of z < 0.07.
