Status of Magic-II
Abelardo Moralejo
A status report of the second phase of the MAGIC ground-based gamma-ray facility (as of October 2009) is presented. MAGIC became recently a stereoscopic Cherenkov observatory with…
Observation of shadowing of the cosmic electrons and positrons by the Moon with IACT
P. Colin, D. Borla Tridon, D. Britzger +4
Recent measurements of the cosmic-ray electron (e-) and positron (e+) fluxes show apparent excesses compared to the spectra expected by standard cosmic-ray (CR) propagation models…
A Flexible High Demand Storage System for MAGIC-I and MAGIC-II using GFS
E. Carmona, J. A. Coarasa, M. Barcelo
MAGIC-I is currently the Imaging Cherenkov Telescope with the worldwide largest reflector currently in operation. The initially achieved low trigger threshold of 60 GeV has been fu…
Studies of the Influence of Moonlight on Observations with the MAGIC Telescope
Daniel Britzger, Emiliano Carmona, Pratik Majumdar +4
The ground-based imaging atmospheric Cherenkov technique is currently the most powerful observation method for very high energy gamma rays. With its specially designed camera and r…
The MAGIC Data Center
Ignasi Reichardt, Javier Rico, Emiliano Carmona +8
The MAGIC I telescope produces currently around 100TByte of raw data per year that is calibrated and reduced on-site at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos (La Palma). Sinc…
Performance of the MAGIC telescopes in stereoscopic mode
P. Colin, D. Borla Tridon, E. Carmona +7
The MAGIC gamma-ray observatory has recently been upgraded by a second Cherenkov telescope at a distance of 85 m from the first one. Simultaneous observation of air showers with th…
