Improving the performance of the single-dish Cherenkov telescope MAGIC through the use of signal timing

MAGIC Collaboration

The Cherenkov light flashes produced by Extensive Air Showers are very short in time. A high bandwidth and fast digitizing readout, therefore, can minimize the influence of the bac…

MAGIC upper limits to the VHE gamma-ray flux of 3C454.3 in high emission state

H. Anderhub, S. Vercellone, I. Donnarumma +2

We report upper limits to the very high energy flux (E>100 GeV) of the flat spectrum radio quasar 3C454.3 (z=0.859) derived by the Cherenkov telescope MAGIC during the high states…
