Indirect dark matter searches in the dwarf satellite galaxy Ursa Major II with the MAGIC Telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +142

The dwarf spheroidal galaxy Ursa Major II (UMaII) is believed to be one of the most dark-matter dominated systems among the Milky Way satellites and represents a suitable target fo…

Optical spectroscopic survey of a sample of Unidentified Fermi objects

Simona Paiano, Renato Falomo, Alberto Franceschini +2

We present optical spectroscopy secured at the 10m Gran Telescopio Canarias of the counterparts of 20 extragalactic gamma-ray sources detected by the Fermi satellite. The observati…

An optical view of extragalactic gamma-ray emitters

Simona Paiano, Renato Falomo, Marco Landoni +2

The Fermi Gamma-ray Observatory discovered about a thousand extragalactic sources emitting energy from 100 MeV to 100 GeV. The majority of these sources belong to the class of blaz…

Constraining Lorentz invariance violation using the Crab Pulsar emission observed up to TeV energies by MAGIC

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +142

Spontaneous breaking of Lorentz symmetry at energies on the order of the Planck energy or lower is predicted by many quantum gravity theories, implying non-trivial dispersion relat…
