Context. The supernova remnant (SNR) W44 and its surroundings are a prime target for studying the acceleration of cosmic rays (CRs). Several previous studies established an extende…
Discriminating between different modified dispersion relations from gamma-ray observations
S. Caroff, C. Pfeifer, J. Bolmont +8
The fact that the standard dispersion relation for photons in vacuum could be modified because of their interaction with the quantum nature of spacetime has been proposed more than…
Combined search in dwarf spheroidal galaxies for branon dark matter annihilation signatures with the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration
Massive brane fluctuations, called branons, behave as weakly interacting massive particles, which is one of the most favored class of candidates to fulfill the role of the dark mat…
A detailed study of the very-high-energy Crab pulsar emission with the LST-1
CTA-LST Project, :, K. Abe +294
Context: There are currently three pulsars firmly detected by imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs), two of them reaching TeV energies, challenging models of very-high-e…
Constraints on Lorentz invariance violation from the extraordinary Mrk 421 flare of 2014 using a novel analysis method
MAGIC Collaboration, S. Abe, J. Abhir +214
The Lorentz Invariance Violation (LIV), a proposed consequence of certain quantum gravity (QG) scenarios, could instigate an energy-dependent group velocity for ultra-relativistic…
Constraints on VHE gamma-ray emission of Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars with the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration
Flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) constitute a class of jetted active galaxies characterized by a very luminous accretion disk, prominent and rapidly moving line-emitting cloud s…
Constraints on axion-like particles with the Perseus Galaxy Cluster with MAGIC
MAGIC Collaboration, H. Abe, S. Abe +211
Axion-like particles (ALPs) are pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons that emerge in various theories beyond the standard model. These particles can interact with high-energy photons in ex…
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…
