abstract = {The Breakthrough Listen Initiative is conducting a program
using multiple telescopes around the world to search for
“technosignatures”: artificial transmitters of
extraterrestrial origin from beyond our solar system. The
Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System
(VERITAS) Collaboration joined this program in 2018 and
provides the capability to search for one particular
technosignature: optical pulses of a few nanoseconds in
duration detectable over interstellar distances. We report
here on the analysis and results of dedicated VERITAS
observations of Breakthrough Listen targets conducted in
2019 and 2020 and of archival VERITAS data collected since
2012. Thirty hours of dedicated observations of 136 targets
and 249 archival observations of 140 targets were analyzed
and did not reveal any signals consistent with a
technosignature. The results are used to place limits on the
fraction of stars hosting transmitting civilizations. We
also discuss the minimum pulse sensitivity of our
observations and present VERITAS observations of CALIOP: a
space-based pulsed laser on board the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar
and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations. The
detection of these pulses with VERITAS, using the analysis
techniques developed for our technosignature search, allows
a test of our analysis efficiency and serves as an important
proof of principle.},
