Results from MAGIC Observations of Extragalactic Relativistic Sources
Ulisses Barres de Almeida
The Major Atmospheric Gamma-ray Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) experiment is an array of two 17-meter telescopes located in the Canary Island of La Palma that observes the very-high ene…
Detection of very-high energy γ-ray emission from NGC 1275 by the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, E. A. Alvarez +161
We report on the detection of very-high energy (VHE, E>100 GeV) gamma-ray emission from NGC 1275, the central radio galaxy of the Perseus cluster of galaxies. The source has been d…
Simultaneous multi-wavelength campaign on PKS 2005-489 in a high state
The H. E. S. S. Collaboration, the Fermi LAT Collaboration, : +345
The high-frequency peaked BL Lac object PKS 2005-489 was the target of a multi-wavelength campaign with simultaneous observations in the TeV gamma-ray (H.E.S.S.), GeV gamma-ray (Fe…
MAGIC contributions to the 32nd International Cosmic Ray Conference
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, E. A. Alvarez +160
Compilation of the papers contributed by the MAGIC collaboration to the 32nd International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC 2011), which took place between August 11 and 18, 2011 in Bei…
Constraining Cosmic Rays and Magnetic Fields in the Perseus Galaxy Cluster with TeV observations by the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, E. A. Alvarez +161
Galaxy clusters are being assembled today in the most energetic phase of hierarchical structure formation which manifests itself in powerful shocks that contribute to a substantial…
The 2010 very high energy gamma-ray flare & 10 years of multi-wavelength observations of M 87
The H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +442
Abridged: The giant radio galaxy M 87 with its proximity, famous jet, and very massive black hole provides a unique opportunity to investigate the origin of very high energy (VHE;…
MAGIC low energy observation of GRB090102 afterglow
A. Carosi, L. A. Antonelli, U. Barres de Almeida +11
Hints for a GeV component in the emission from GRBs are known since the EGRET observations during the '90s and they have been recently confirmed by the data of the Fermi satellite.…
Multifrequency Variability and Correlations from Extensive Observing Campaigns of Mkn 421 and Mkn 501 in 2009
Ulisses Barres de Almeida, David Paneque, Nina Nowak +2
We are performing an unprecedentedly long and dense monitoring of the multi-frequency (radio to TeV) emission from the classical TeV blazars Mkn 421 and Mkn 501. These objects are…
Discovery of the source HESS J1356-645 associated with the young and energetic PSR J1357-6429
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +195
Several newly discovered very-high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray sources in the Galaxy are thought to be associated with energetic pulsars. Among them, middle-aged (> 1E+4 yr…
Very-high-energy gamma-ray emission from the direction of the Galactic globular cluster Terzan 5
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +194
The H.E.S.S. very-high-energy (VHE, E > 0.1 TeV) gamma-ray telescope system has discovered a new source, HESS J1747-248. The measured integral flux is (1.2 +/- 0.3) \times 10^-12 c…
A new SNR with TeV shell-type morphology: HESS J1731-347
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +195
The recent discovery of the radio shell-type supernova remnant (SNR), G353.6-0.7, in spatial coincidence with the unidentified TeV source HESS J1731-347 has motivated further obser…
