Observations of the Crab pulsar between 25 GeV and 100 GeV with the MAGIC I telescope

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, E. A. Alvarez +156

We report on the observation of -rays above 25\,GeV from the Crab pulsar (PSR B0532+21) using the MAGIC I telescope. Two data sets from observations during the winter period 200…

Spectral Energy Distribution of Markarian 501: Quiescent State vs. Extreme Outburst

The VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, T. Arlen +225

The very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) blazar Markarian 501 has a well-studied history of extreme spectral variability and is an excellent laboratory for studying the physical pro…

Insights Into the High-Energy Gamma-ray Emission of Markarian 501 from Extensive Multifrequency Observations in the Fermi Era

LAT collaboration, A. A. Abdo et al., the MAGIC collaboration +6

We report on the gamma-ray activity of the blazar Mrk 501 during the first 480 days of Fermi operation. We find that the average LAT gamma-ray spectrum of Mrk 501 can be well descr…

Magic constraints on Gamma-ray emission from Cygnus X-3

J. Aleksić, L. A. Antonelli, P. Antoranz +156

Cygnus X-3 is a microquasar consisting of an accreting compact object orbiting around a Wolf-Rayet star. It has been detected at radio frequencies and up to high-energy gamma rays…
