MAGIC observations of very high energy gamma-rays from HESS J1813-178
J. Albert, MAGIC collaboration
Recently, the HESS collaboration has reported the detection of gamma-ray emission above a few hundred GeV from eight new sources located close to the Galactic Plane. The source HES…
The MAGIC Telescope and the Observation of Gamma Ray Bursts
D. Bastieri, N. Galante, M. Gaug +4
The MAGIC Telescope, now taking data with an energy threshold well below 100 GeV, will soon be able to take full advantage of the fast slewing capability of its altazimuthal mount.…
Using the photons from the Crab Nebula seen by GLAST to calibrate MAGIC and the Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes
D. Bastieri, C. Bigongiari, E. Bisesi +14
In this article we discuss the possibility of using the observations by GLAST of standard gamma sources, as the Crab Nebula, to calibrate Imaging Air Cherenkov detectors, MAGIC in…
Simulating the High Energy Gamma-ray sky seen by the GLAST Large Area Telescope
F. Longo, P. Azzi, D. Bastieri +26
This paper presents the simulation of the GLAST high energy gamma-ray telescope. The simulation package, written in C++, is based on the Geant4 toolkit, and it is integrated into a…
The MAGIC Experiment and Its First Results
D. Bastieri, R. Bavikadi, C. Bigongiari +16
With its diameter of 17m, the MAGIC telescope is the largest Cherenkov detector for gamma ray astrophysics. It is sensitive to photons above an energy of 30 GeV. MAGIC started oper…
