Observations of Markarian 421 with the MAGIC Telescope [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2007
The MAGIC telescope took data of very high energy gamma-ray emission from the blazar Markarian 421 ( Mrk 421) between 2004 November and 2005 April. We present a combined analysis of data samples recorded under different observational conditions, down to gamma- ray energies of 100 GeV. The flux was found to vary between 0.5 and 2 crab ( integrated above

Gamma-Ray Bursts Afterglow Physics and the VHE Domain

open access: yesGalaxies, 2022
Afterglow radiation in gamma-ray bursts (GRB), extending from the radio band to GeV energies, is produced as a result of the interaction between the relativistic jet and the ambient medium.

The Detection of GRBs at VHE: A Challenge Lasting for More than Two Decades, What Is Next?

open access: yesGalaxies, 2022
Unveiling the mystery of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) has been the target of many multi-waveband observational and theoretical efforts during the last decades.

MAGIC highlights

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
The present generation of Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) has greatly improved our knowledge on the Very High Energy (VHE) side of our Universe. The MAGIC IACTs operate since 2004 with one telescope and since 2009 as a two telescope stereoscopic

Multimessenger Characterization of Markarian 501 during Historically Low X-Ray and γ-Ray Activity

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We study the broadband emission of Mrk 501 using multiwavelength observations from 2017 to 2020 performed with a multitude of instruments, involving, among others, MAGIC, Fermi's Large Area Telescope (LAT), NuSTAR, Swift, GASP-WEBT, and the Owens Valley ...

Results of MAGIC on Galactic sources

open access: yes, 2008
MAGIC is a single-dish Cherenkov telescope located on La Palma (Spain), hence with an optimal view on the Northern sky. Sensitive in the 30 GeV-30 TeV energy band, it is nowadays the only ground-based instrument being able to measure high-energy gamma ...

The Galactic Center Region Imaged by VERITAS from 2010{2012

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
The galactic center has long been a region of interest for high-energy and very-high-energy observations. Many potential sources of GeV/TeV gamma-ray emission are located in this region, e.g.

INTEGRAL View of TeV Sources: A Legacy for the CTA Project

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
Investigations that were carried out over the last two decades with novel and more sensitive instrumentation have dramatically improved our knowledge of the more violent physical processes taking place in galactic and extra-galactic Black-Holes, Neutron ...

First bounds on the very high energy gamma-ray emission from Arp 220 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Using the Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov Telescope (MAGIC), we have observed the nearest ultra-luminous infrared galaxy Arp 220 for about 15 hours. No significant signal was detected within the dedicated amount of observation time.

Upgrade of the MAGIC telescopes

open access: yes, 2013
The MAGIC telescopes are two Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) located on the Canary island of La Palma. With 17m diameter mirror dishes and ultra-fast electronics, they provide an energy threshold as low as 50 GeV for observations at low zenith angles.
