MAGIC Observations of PG 1553+113 during a Multiwavelength Campaign in July 2006
MAGIC Collaboration, Albert
The active galactic nucleus PG 1553+113 was observed by the MAGIC telescope in July 2006 during a multiwavelength campaign, in which telescopes in the optical, X-ray, and very high…
The June 2008 flare of Markarian 421 from optical to TeV energies
The Agile Collaboration, Webt Collaboration, Magic Collaboration +2
We present optical, X-ray, high energy ( GeV) and very high energy ( GeV; VHE) observations of the high-frequency peaked blazar Mrk 421 taken betwee…
Discovery of a very high energy gamma-ray signal from the 3C 66A/B region
MAGIC Collaboration, E. Aliu
The MAGIC telescope observed the region around the distant blazar 3C 66A for 54.2 h in 2007 August-December. The observations resulted in the discovery of a gamma-ray source at ene…
Observation of Pulsed Gamma-rays Above 25 GeV from the Crab Pulsar with MAGIC
The MAGIC Collaboration, E. Aliu
One fundamental question about pulsars concerns the mechanism of their pulsed electromagnetic emission. Measuring the high-end region of a pulsar's spectrum would shed light on thi…
Periodic very high energy gamma-ray emission from LS I +61 303 observed with the MAGIC telescope
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Albert
The MAGIC collaboration has recently reported the discovery of gamma-ray emission from the binary system LS I +61 303 in the TeV energy region. Here we present new observational re…
Very High Energy Gamma-Ray Observations of a Strong Flaring Activity in M87 in 2008 February
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Albert
M87 is the only known non blazar 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 MAG…
MAGIC observations of the unidentified TeV gamma-ray source TeV J2032+4130
J. Albert
We observed the first known very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray emitting unidentified source, TeV J2032+4130, for 94 hours with the MAGIC telescope. The source was detected with a sig…
Simultaneous multiwavelength observations of the blazar 1ES1959+650 at a low TeV flux
G. Tagliaferri, L. Foschini, G. Ghisellini +7
We present the results from a multiwavelength campaign on the TeV blazar 1ES 1959+650, performed in May, 2006. Data from the optical, UV, soft- and hard-X-ray and very high energy…
Multi-wavelength (radio, X-ray and gamma-ray) observations of the gamma-ray binary LS I +61 303
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Albert
We present the results of the first multiwavelength observing campaign on the high-mass X-ray binary LS I +61 303 comprising observations at the TeV regime with the MAGIC telescope…
Upper limit for gamma-ray emission above 140 GeV from the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Draco
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Albert
The nearby dwarf spheroidal galaxy Draco with its high mass to light ratio is one of the most auspicious targets for indirect dark matter searches. Annihilation of hypothetical DM…
Discovery of very high-energy gamma-ray emission from the LBL object BL Lacertae
MAGIC Collaboration, M. Hayashida, K. Berger +4
The low-frequency peaked BL Lac (LBL) object BL Lacertae was observed with the MAGIC telescope from 2005 August to December (22.2 hr), and from 2006 July to September (26.0 hr). A…
Very High Energy Gamma-ray Radiation from the Stellar-mass Black Hole Cygnus X-1
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Albert
We report on the results from the observations in very high energy band (VHE, E_gamma > 100 GeV) of the black hole X-ray binary (BHXB) Cygnus X-1. The observations were performed w…
Systematic search for VHE gamma-ray emission from X-ray bright high-frequency BL Lac objects
M. Meyer
All but three (M87, BL Lac and 3C 279) extragalactic sources detected so far at very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays belong to the class of high-frequency peaked BL Lac (HBL) objects.…
VHE Gamma-Ray Observation of the Crab Nebula and its Pulsar with the MAGIC telescope
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Albert
We report about very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray observations of the Crab Nebula with the MAGIC telescope. The gamma-ray flux from the nebula was measured between 60 GeV and 9 TeV.…
Constraints on the steady and pulsed very high energy gamma-ray emission from observations of PSR B1951+32/CTB 80 with the MAGIC Telescope
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Albert
We report on very high energy gamma-observations with the MAGIC Telescope of the pulsar PSR B1951+32 and its associated nebula, CTB 80. Our data constrain the cutoff energy of the…
Variable VHE gamma-ray emission from Markarian 501
J. Albert et al
The blazar Markarian 501 (Mrk 501) was observed at energies above 0.10 TeV with the MAGIC telescope from May through July 2005. The high sensitivity of the instrument enabled the d…
