Active Galactic Nuclei: Sources for ultra high energy cosmic rays?

P. L. Biermann, J. K. Becker, L. Caramete +11

The origin of ultra high energy cosmic rays promises to lead us to a deeper understanding of the structure of matter. This is possible through the study of particle collisions at c…

Improving the performance of the single-dish Cherenkov telescope MAGIC through the use of signal timing

MAGIC Collaboration

The Cherenkov light flashes produced by Extensive Air Showers are very short in time. A high bandwidth and fast digitizing readout, therefore, can minimize the influence of the bac…

MAGIC upper limits to the VHE gamma-ray flux of 3C454.3 in high emission state

H. Anderhub, S. Vercellone, I. Donnarumma +2

We report upper limits to the very high energy flux (E>100 GeV) of the flat spectrum radio quasar 3C454.3 (z=0.859) derived by the Cherenkov telescope MAGIC during the high states…

Solar Energetic Particle Spectrum on 13 December 2006 Determined by IceTop

R. Abbasi

On 13 December 2006 the IceTop air shower array at the South Pole detected a major solar particle event. By numerically simulating the response of the IceTop tanks, which are thick…
