Upper limit for gamma-ray emission above 140 GeV from the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Draco
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Albert
The nearby dwarf spheroidal galaxy Draco with its high mass to light ratio is one of the most auspicious targets for indirect dark matter searches. Annihilation of hypothetical DM…
The Camera of the MAGIC-II Telescope
C. C. Hsu, A. Dettlaff, D. Fink +13
The MAGIC 17m diameter Cherenkov telescope will be upgraded with a second telescope within the year 2007. The camera of MAGIC-II will include several new features compared to the M…
Upgrade of the MAGIC Telescope with a Multiplexed Fiber-Optic 2 GSamples/s FADC Data Acquisition system
MAGIC Collaboration, Florian Goebel, Hendrik Bartko +6
In February 2007 the MAGIC Air Cherenkov Telescope for gamma ray astronomy was fully upgraded with a fast 2 GSamples/s digitization system. The upgraded readout system uses a novel…
Recent progress of GaAsP HPD development for the MAGIC telescope project
T. Y. Saito, M. Shayduk, M. V. Fonseca +6
Today the Hybrid Photon Detector (HPD) is one of the few low light level (LLL) sensors that can provide an excellent single and multiple photoelectron (ph.e.) amplitude resolution.…
SiPM Development for Astroparticle Physics Applications
M. Teshima, B. Dolgoshein, R. Mirzoyan +2
The SiPM is a novel solid state photodetector which can be operated in the single photon counting mode. It has excellent features, such as high quantum efficiency, good charge reso…
The reflecting surface of the MAGIC-II Telescope
D. Bastieri, J. Arnold, C. Baixeras +19
The MAGIC Collaboration is building a second telescope, MAGIC II, improving the design of the current MAGIC Telescope. MAGIC II is being built at 85 m of distance from MAGIC I, and…
