The benefit of a multi-band high resolution spectroscopic monitoring for studying stellar transients: the NGC 300 OT2008-1 UVES spectrum as a test case
Elena Mason, Steven N. Shore, Andrea Pastorello +1
This work advocates the benefit of high resolution spectroscopic monitoring in the study of transients (local group transients given the available collecting power). As an exemplar…
Formation of stable exoplanetary systems around pulsars by capture: An exercise in computational classical mechanics
Václav Pavlík, Steven N. Shore, Vladimír Karas +1
The study of our Solar System -- its formation, evolution, and long-term stability -- has been ongoing for centuries and is now a standard part of scientific education. While the f…
Dynamical binary interactions in the 2040s
Nadejda Blagorodnova, Ondřej Pejcha, Tomek Kamiński +15
Dynamical binary interactions such as common envelope (CE) evolution or stellar mergers are a critical phase in the formation of a wide variety of binary phenomena, ranging from bl…
Constraining Lorentz invariance violation using the Crab Pulsar emission observed up to TeV energies by MAGIC
MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +142
Spontaneous breaking of Lorentz symmetry at energies on the order of the Planck energy or lower is predicted by many quantum gravity theories, implying non-trivial dispersion relat…
A Systematic Survey of the Effects of Wind Mass Loss Algorithms on the Evolution of Single Massive Stars
Mathieu Renzo, Christian D. Ott, Steven N. Shore +1
Mass loss is a key uncertainty in the evolution of massive stars. Stellar evolution calculations must employ parametric algorithms for mass loss, and usually only include stellar w…
Swift detection of the super-swift switch-on of the super-soft phase in nova V745 Sco (2014)
K. L. Page, J. P. Osborne, N. P. M. Kuin +15
V745 Sco is a recurrent nova, with the most recent eruption occurring in February 2014. V745 Sco was first observed by Swift a mere 3.7 hr after the announcement of the optical dis…
Discovery of very high energy gamma-ray emission from the blazar 1ES 0033+595 by the MAGIC telescopes
J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +157
The number of known very high energy (VHE) blazars is , which is very small in comparison to the number of blazars detected in other frequencies. This situation is a hand…
The major upgrade of the MAGIC telescopes, Part II: A performance study using observations of the Crab Nebula
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksic, S. Ansoldi +163
MAGIC is a system of two Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes located in the Canary island of La Palma, Spain. During summer 2011 and 2012 it underwent a series of upgrades, in…
Measurement of the Crab Nebula spectrum over three decades in energy with the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +150
The MAGIC stereoscopic system collected 69 hours of Crab Nebula data between October 2009 and April 2011. Analysis of this data sample using the latest improvements in the MAGIC st…
Discovery of TeV gamma-ray emission from the pulsar wind nebula 3C 58 by MAGIC
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +145
The pulsar wind nebula (PWN) 3C 58 is one of the historical very-high-energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) gamma-ray source candidates. It is energized by one of the highest spin-down power pul…
Recurrent Novae: Progenitors of SN Ia?
Rolf Walder, Doris Folini, Jean M. Favre +1
We present 3D hydrodynamical simulations of the separated binary RS Ophiuchi (RS Oph), a recurrent nova and potential progenitor of a SN Ia. RS Oph is composed of a red giant (RG)…
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…
The June 2008 flare of Markarian 421 from optical to TeV energies
R. M. Wagner, I. Donnarumma, J. Grube +6
We present optical to very-high energy (VHE) gamma-ray observations of Mrk 421 between 2008 May 24 and June 23. A high-energy (HE) gamma-ray signal was detected by AGILE-GRID durin…
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…
First bounds on the high-energy emission from isolated Wolf-Rayet binary systems
MAGIC Collaboration, E. Aliu
High-energy gamma-ray emission is theoretically expected to arise in tight binary star systems (with high mass loss and high velocity winds), although the evidence of this relation…
Discovery of VHE Gamma Radiation from IC443 with the MAGIC Telescope
MAGIC Collaboration
We report the detection of a new source of very high energy (VHE, E_gamma >= 100GeV) gamma-ray emission located close to the Galactic Plane, MAGIC J0616+225, which is spatially coi…
Systematic search for VHE gamma-ray emission from X-ray bright high-frequency BL Lac objects
