Constraints on the VHE counterpart of two binary black hole mergers observed by the MAGIC and CTAO LST-1 telescopes

K. Abe, S. Abe, J. Abhir +358

We present very-high-energy gamma-ray observations of two binary black hole merger candidates, GW240615_113620 and GW241125_010116, performed with the Major Atmospheric Gamma Imagi…

Searching for dark matter annihilating into light long-lived mediators from stars inside dwarf spheroidal galaxies

Aman Gupta, Pooja Bhattacharjee, Pratik Majumdar

Several astrophysical and cosmological observations suggest the existence of dark matter (DM) through its gravitational effects, yet its nature remains elusive. Despite the lack of…

Detection of the 2021 Outburst of RS Ophiuchi with the LST-1

Yukiho Kobayashi, Arnau Aguasca-Cabot, María Isabel Bernardos Martín +2

Novae are luminous explosions in close binaries which host a white dwarf and a companion donor star. They are triggered by a thermonuclear runaway when the white dwarf accretes a c…

Chasing Gravitational Waves with the Cherenkov Telescope Array

Jarred Gershon Green, Alessandro Carosi, Lara Nava +563

The detection of gravitational waves from a binary neutron star merger by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo (GW170817), along with the discovery of the electromagnetic counterparts…

Variability studies of active galactic nuclei from the long-term monitoring program with the Cherenkov Telescope Array

Guillaume Grolleron, Josefa Becerra González, Jonathan Biteau +13

Blazars are active galactic nuclei (AGN) with a relativistic jet oriented toward the observer. This jet is composed of accelerated particles which can display emission over the ent…

LST-1 observations of an enormous flare of BL Lacertae in 2021

Seiya Nozaki, Katsuaki Asano, Juan Escudero +2

The first prototype of LST (LST-1) for the Cherenkov Telescope Array has been in commissioning phase since 2018 and already started scientific observations with the low energy thre…

Dark matter searches in dwarf spheroidal galaxies with the Cherenkov Telescope Array

Francesco Gabriele Saturni, Michele Doro, Aldo Morselli +1

Dark matter (DM) is one of the major components in the Universe. However, at present its existence is still only inferred through indirect astronomical observations. DM particles c…

Physics Performance of the Large-Sized Telescope prototype of the Cherenkov Telescope Array

R. López-Coto, A. Moralejo, M. Artero +15

The Large-Sized Telescope (LST) prototype of the future Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is located at the Northern site of CTA, on the Canary Island of La Palma. It is designed to…

Search for high-energy muon neutrinos from the "naked-eye" GRB 080319B with the IceCube neutrino telescope

IceCube Collaboration, R. Abbasi

We report on a search with the IceCube detector for high-energy muon neutrinos from GRB 080319B, one of the brightest gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) ever observed. The fireball model pred…

Discovery of very high energy gamma-rays from the flat spectrum radio quasar 3C 279 with the MAGIC telescope

M. Errando, R. Bock, D. Kranich +8

3C 279 is one of the best studied flat spectrum radio quasars located at a comparatively large redshift of z = 0.536. Observations in the very high energy band of such distant sour…
