VHE gamma-ray detection of FSRQ QSO B1420+326 and modeling of its enhanced broadband state in 2020
V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +230
Context. QSO B1420+326 is a blazar classified as a Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar (FSRQ). In the beginning of 2020 it underwent an enhanced flux state. An extensive multiwavelength cam…
MAGIC observations of the nearby short gamma-ray burst GRB 160821B
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +188
The coincident detection of GW170817 in gravitational waves and electromagnetic radiation spanning the radio to MeV gamma-ray bands provided the first direct evidence that short ga…
An intermittent extreme BL Lac: MWL study of 1ES 2344+514 in an enhanced state
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +215
Extreme High-frequency BL~Lacs (EHBL) feature their synchrotron peak of the broadband spectral energy distribution (SED) at 10\,Hz. The BL~Lac object 1ES~23…
Studying the nature of the unidentified gamma-ray source HESS J1841-055 with the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +184
We investigate the physical nature and origin of the gamma-ray emission from the extended source HESS J1841-055 observed at TeV and GeV energies. We observed HESS J1841-055 at TeV…
Observation of inverse Compton emission from a long -ray burst
V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +301
Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from ultra-relativistic jets launched from the collapsing cores of dying massive stars. They are characterised by an initial phase o…
Teraelectronvolt emission from the -ray burst GRB 190114C
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +177
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) of the long-duration class are the most luminous sources of electromagnetic radiation known in the Universe. They are generated by outflows of plasma ejecte…
Testing two-component models on very-high-energy gamma-ray emitting BL Lac objects
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +201
Context. It has become evident that one-zone synchrotron self-Compton models are not always adequate for very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emitting blazars. While two-component mode…
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…
A search for dark matter in Triangulum II with the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +172
We present the first results from very-high-energy observations of the dwarf spheroidal satellite candidate Triangulum II with the MAGIC telescopes from 62.4 hours of good-quality…
Broadband characterisation of the very intense TeV flares of the blazar 1ES 1959+650 in 2016
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +164
1ES 1959+650 is a bright TeV high-frequency-peaked BL Lac object exhibiting interesting features like "orphan" TeV flares and a broad emission in the high-energy regime, that are d…
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
