Sensitivity of the Cherenkov Telescope Array to a dark matter signal from the Galactic centre

The Cherenkov Telescope Array Consortium, :, A. Acharyya +449

We provide an updated assessment of the power of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) to search for thermally produced dark matter at the TeV scale, via the associated gamma-ray sig…

MAGIC observations of the diffuse -ray emission in the vicinity of the Galactic Centre

MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +173

Aims: rays can be used as a tracer in the search of sources of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs). We present deep observations of the Galactic Centre (GC) region with the MAGIC telesc…

FRB Coherent Emission from Decay of Alfven Waves

Pawan Kumar, Z. Bosnjak

We present a model for FRBs where a large amplitude Alfven wave packet is launched by a disturbance near the surface of a magnetar, and a substantial fraction of the wave energy is…

MAGIC very large zenith angle observations of the Crab Nebula up to 100 TeV

MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +169

Aims: We aim to measure the Crab Nebula gamma-ray spectral energy distribution in the ~100 TeV energy domain and test the validity of existing leptonic emission models at these hig…

Unravelling the complex behavior of Mrk 421 with simultaneous X-ray and VHE observations during an extreme flaring activity in April 2013

MAGIC collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +237

We report on a multi-band variability and correlation study of the TeV blazar Mrk 421 during an exceptional flaring activity observed from 2013 April 11 to 2013 April 19. The study…

Study of the variable broadband emission of Markarian 501 during the most extreme Swift X-ray activity

MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +185

Mrk501 is a very high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray blazar located at z=0.034. During a period of two weeks in July 2014, the highest X-ray activity of Mrk501 was observed in ~14 years of…

Monitoring of the radio galaxy M87 during a low emission state from 2012 to 2015 with MAGIC

MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +188

M87 is one of the closest (z=0.00436) extragalactic sources emitting at very-high-energies (VHE, E > 100 GeV). The aim of this work is to locate the region of the VHE gamma-ray emi…
