Abstract content

Milagro is a TeV gamma-ray observatory with a ~2 sr field of view and a >90% duty factor. The large field of view and long observation time make Milagro ideal for surveying large regions of the Northern Hemisphere sky. A previous all-sky survey searched for point sources (Atkins, R, et al., 2004, ApJ, 608, 680-685), but the analysis is easily adaptable to look for intermediate-scale (~10 degrees) as well. A search on intermediate size scales has been conducted, and a map of the Northern Hemisphere will be presented.
