Simultaneous multi-frequency observation of the unknown redshift blazar PG 1553+113 in March-April 2008

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, H. Anderhub +161

The blazar PG 1553+113 is a well known TeV gamma-ray emitter. In this paper, we determine its spectral energy distribution using simultaneous multi-frequency data in order to study…

Correlated X-ray and Very High Energy emission in the gamma-ray binary LS I +61 303

The MAGIC Collaboration, H. Anderhub, L. A. Antonelli +153

The discovery of very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray emitting X-ray binaries has triggered an intense effort to better understand the particle acceleration, absorption, and emission m…

Simultaneous Multiwavelength observation of Mkn 501 in a low state in 2006

The MAGIC Collaboration, H. Anderhub, R. Sato +4

We present results of the multiwavelength campaign on the TeV blazar Mkn 501 performed in 2006 July, including MAGIC for the VHE gamma-ray band and Suzaku for the X-ray band. A VHE…

MAGIC Gamma-ray Telescope Observation of the Perseus Cluster of Galaxies: implications for cosmic rays, dark matter, and NGC1275

The MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, L. A. Antonelli +152

The Perseus galaxy cluster was observed by the MAGIC Cherenkov telescope for a total effective time of 24.4 hr during 2008 November and December. The resulting upper limits on the…

Radio Imaging of the Very-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission Region in the Central Engine of a Radio Galaxy

The VERITAS Collaboration, the VLBA 43 GHz M 87 Monitoring Team, the H. E. S. S. Collaboration +1

The accretion of matter onto a massive black hole is believed to feed the relativistic plasma jets found in many active galactic nuclei (AGN). Although some AGN accelerate particle…

Simultaneous Multiwavelength Observations of Markarian 421 During Outburst

The VERITAS Collaboration, I. de la Calle Perez, A. Ibarra +2

We report on the results of two coordinated multiwavelength campaigns that focused on the blazar Markarian 421 during its 2006 and 2008 outbursts. These campaigns obtained UV and X…

First bounds on the VHE gamma-ray emission from isolated Wolf-Rayet binary systems

Diego F. Torres, Javier Rico, Vincenzo Vitale

Different theoretical models predict VHE gamma-ray emission to arise in tight binary star systems (high mass-loss and high wind speeds), which has not been confirmed experimentally…

Search for VHE -ray emission from the globular cluster M13 with the MAGIC telescope

MAGIC Collaboration

Based on MAGIC observations from June and July 2007, we have obtained an integral upper limit to the VHE energy emission of the globular cluster M13 of $F(E>200 \textrm{GeV})<5.1\t…
