Very-high-energy gamma-rays from the Universe's middle age: detection of the z=0.940 blazar PKS 1441+25 with MAGIC

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +246

The flat-spectrum radio quasar PKS 1441+25 at a redshift of z = 0.940 is detected between 40 and 250 GeV with a significance of 25.5 σ using the MAGIC telescopes. Together with the…
