A search for spectral hysteresis and energy-dependent time lags from X-ray and TeV gamma-ray observations of Mrk 421

A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +220

Blazars are variable emitters across all wavelengths over a wide range of timescales, from months down to minutes. It is therefore essential to observe blazars simultaneously at di…

Very High-Energy Gamma-Ray Follow-Up Program Using Neutrino Triggers from IceCube

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, K. Abraham +537

We describe and report the status of a neutrino-triggered program in IceCube that generates real-time alerts for gamma-ray follow-up observations by atmospheric-Cherenkov telescope…

High energy neutrinos produced in the accretion disks by neutrons from nuclei disintegrated in the AGN jets

W. Bednarek

We investigate the consequences of acceleration of nuclei in jets of active galaxies not far from the surface of an accretion disk. The nuclei can be accelerated in the re-connecti…

Detection of very high energy gamma-ray emission from the gravitationally-lensed blazar QSO B0218+357 with the MAGIC telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +151

Context. QSO B0218+357 is a gravitationally lensed blazar located at a redshift of 0.944. The gravitational lensing splits the emitted radiation into two components, spatially indi…

Long-term multi-wavelength variability and correlation study of Markarian 421 from 2007 to 2009

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +176

We study the multi-band variability and correlations of the TeV blazar Mrk 421 on year time scales, which can bring additional insight on the processes responsible for its broadban…

Super-orbital variability of LS I +61°303 at TeV energies

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +150

The gamma-ray binary LS I +61303 is a well established source from centimeter radio up to very high energy (VHE; E100 GeV). Its broadband emission shows a periodicity…

Variability of GeV gamma-ray emission in QSO B0218+357 due to microlensing on intermediate size structures

Julian Sitarek, Wlodek Bednarek

Strong gravitational lensing leads to an occurrence of multiple images, with different magnifications, of a lensed source. Those magnifications can in turn be modified by microlens…

Multi-Wavelength Observations of the Blazar 1ES 1011+496 in Spring 2008

The MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +158

The BL Lac object 1ES 1011+496 was discovered at Very High Energy gamma-rays by MAGIC in spring 2007. Before that the source was little studied in different wavelengths. Therefore…

Insights into the emission of the blazar 1ES 1011+496 through unprecedented broadband observations during 2011 and 2012

J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +161

1ES 1011+496 was discovered in very high energy (VHE, E >100 GeV) -rays with MAGIC in 2007. The absence of simultaneous data at lower energies led to a rather incomp…
