Abstract

We present here the results of recent observations made with the Whipple 10m imaging Cherenkov telescope of the region of the supernova remnant IC443. No evidence for gamma-ray emission was found, and we obtain an upper limit above 500 GeV (99.9% confidence) of 0.6 × 10^-7 ph m^-2 s^-1 (0.11 Crab) at the location of the recently identified X-ray plerion nebula and 0.8 × 10^-7 ph m^-2 s^-1 (0.14 Crab) at the site of the OH maser at the densest part of the molecular cloud.
