Abstract
During the 2007/2008 observing season a low‐energy trigger configuration was developed and tested for VERITAS. The configuration makes uses of the small (∼35 m) baseline between two of the VERITAS telescopes and employs a much lower discriminator threshold and tighter coincidence window compared to the standard VERITAS trigger. Five hours of Crab Nebula ON/OFF observations were obtained in low‐energy mode and were used to test new low‐energy analysis algorithms. We present some details of the VERITAS low‐energy trigger and the associated data analysis.
