The variability patterns of the TeV blazar PG 1553+113 from a decade of MAGIC and multi-band observations
MAGIC Collaboration, H. Abe, S. Abe +264
PG 1553+113 is one of the few blazars with a convincing quasi-periodic emission in the gamma-ray band. The source is also a very high-energy (VHE; >100 GeV) gamma-ray emitter. To b…
High-energy gamma-ray observations of the accreting black hole V404 Cygni during its June 2015 outburst
A. Loh, S. Corbel, G. Dubus +7
We report on Fermi/Large Area Telescope observations of the accreting black hole low-mass X-ray binary V404 Cygni during its outburst in June-July 2015. Detailed analyses reveal a…
Long-term monitoring of the high-energy gamma-ray emission from LS I +61° 303 and LS 5039
D. Hadasch, D. F. Torres, T. Tanaka +15
The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) reported the first definitive GeV detections of the binaries LS I +61\degree 303 and LS 5039 in the first year after its launch in June, 2008.…
Multi-wavelength observations of blazar AO 0235+164 in the 2008-2009 flaring state
M. Ackermann, M. Ajello, J. Ballet +208
The blazar AO 0235+164 (z = 0.94) has been one of the most active objects observed by Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) since its launch in Summer 2008. In addition to the continuou…
The structure and emission model of the relativistic jet in the quasar 3C 279 inferred from radio to high-energy gamma-ray observations in 2008-2010
M. Hayashida, G. M. Madejski, K. Nalewajko +90
We present time-resolved broad-band observations of the quasar 3C 279 obtained from multi-wavelength campaigns conducted during the first two years of the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Tel…
The radio/gamma-ray connection in Active Galactic Nuclei in the era of the Fermi Large Area Telescope
M. Ackermann, M. Ajello, A. Allafort +144
We present a detailed statistical analysis of the correlation between radio and gamma-ray emission of the Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) detected by Fermi during its first year of op…
The Spitzer Extragalactic Representative Volume Survey (SERVS): survey definition and goals
J. -C. Mauduit, M. Lacy, D. Farrah +81
We present the Spitzer Extragalactic Representative Volume Survey (SERVS), an 18 square degrees medium-deep survey at 3.6 and 4.5 microns with the post-cryogenic Spitzer Space Tele…
MAGIC detection of short-term variability of the high-peaked BL Lac object 1ES 0806+524
MAGIC Collaboration, J. AleksiÄ, S. Ansoldi +152
The high-frequency-peaked BL Lac (HBL) 1ES 0806+524 (z = 0.138) was discovered in VHE rays in 2008. Until now, the broad-band spectrum of 1ES 0806+524 has been only poorly cha…
MAGIC observations and multifrequency properties of the Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar 3C 279 in 2011
J. AleksiÄ, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +168
We study the multifrequency emission and spectral properties of the quasar 3C 279. We observed 3C 279 in very high energy (VHE, E>100GeV) gamma rays, with the MAGIC telescopes duri…
