Towards an optimized design for the Cherenkov Telescope Array

V. Stamatescu, Y. Becherini, K. Bernllöhr +16

The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a future instrument for very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray astronomy that is expected to deliver an order of magnitude improvement in sensitivi…

Observations of the magnetars 4U 0142+61 and 1E 2259+586 with the MAGIC telescopes

The MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, L. A. Antonelli +153

Magnetars are an extreme, highly magnetized class of isolated neutron stars whose large X-ray luminosity is believed to be driven by their high magnetic field. In this work we stud…

The Simultaneous Low State Spectral Energy Distribution of 1ES 2344+514 from Radio to Very High Energies

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, L. A. Antonelli +191

[Abridged] Context. To construct and interpret the spectral energy distribution (SED) of BL Lacertae objects, simultaneous broad-band observations are mandatory. Aims. We present t…

Monte Carlo design studies for the Cherenkov Telescope Array

K. Bernlöhr, A. Barnacka, Y. Becherini +36

The Cherenkov Telescopes Array (CTA) is planned as the future instrument for very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray astronomy with a wide energy range of four orders of magnitude and an…

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

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, E. A. Alvarez +155

We present the results of a long M87 monitoring campaign in very high energy -rays with the MAGIC-I Cherenkov telescope. We aim to model the persistent non-thermal jet emission…

Detection of VHE γ-rays from HESS J0632+057 during the 2011 February X-ray outburst with the MAGIC Telescopes

The MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, E. A. Alvarez +158

The very high energy (VHE) γ-ray source HESS J0632+057 has recently been confirmed to be a γ-ray binary. The optical counterpart is the Be star MWC 148, and a compact object of unk…
