The 2010 very high energy gamma-ray flare & 10 years of multi-wavelength observations of M 87

The H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +442

Abridged: The giant radio galaxy M 87 with its proximity, famous jet, and very massive black hole provides a unique opportunity to investigate the origin of very high energy (VHE;…

MAGIC observations of the giant radio galaxy M87 in a low emission state between 2005 and 2007

Karsten Berger, Dijana Dominis Prester, Fabrizio Tavecchio +1

We present the results of a long M87 monitoring campaign in very high energy -rays with the MAGIC-I Cherenkov telescope. A total of 150 hours of data was gathered between 2005 a…

The strong flaring activity of M87 in early 2008 as observed by the MAGIC telescope

D. Tescaro, D. Mazin, R. M. Wagner +2

M87 is the first known radio galaxy to emit very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays. During a monitoring program of M87, a rapid flare in VHE gamma-rays was detected by the MAGIC telesco…
