Ultra-extreme high-frequency-peaked BL Lacs: A potential population of MeV synchrotron blazars
A. Sciaccaluga, F. Tavecchio, T. Sbarrato +1
We investigate the potential existence of a new population of BL Lacs, called ultra-extreme high-energy-peaked BL Lacs (UEHBLs), whose synchrotron emission component peaks in the M…
Chasing Gamma-Ray Signals from Binary Neutron Star Coalescences with the Cherenkov Telescope Array: Prospects and Observing Strategies
S. Abe, J. Abhir, A. Abhishek +457
The detection of gravitational waves (GWs) from a binary neutron star (BNS) merger by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo (GW170817), together with its electromagnetic counterpart, th…
First detection of VHE gamma-ray signal from the FSRQ TON 0599
MAGIC Collaboration, K. Abe, S. Abe +245
TON\,0599 (z=0.7247) belongs to the few flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) detected in the very high energy (VHE, \,GeV) gamma-ray band. Its redshift makes it currently o…
Time-Dependent Modeling of the Sub-Hour Spectral Evolution During the 2013 Outburst of Mrk 421
MAGIC Collaboration, K. Abe, S. Abe +192
In April 2013, the TeV blazar Markarian~421 underwent one of its most powerful emission outbursts to date. An extensive multi-instrument campaign featuring MAGIC, VERITAS, and \tex…
The TeV emission of 3C273: inverse Compton radiation from shear-accelerated high-energy electrons in the large-scale jet?
F. Tavecchio
The VERITAS Collaboration recently reported the detection of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from the prototypical radio quasar 3C273. The temporal and the spectral prope…
Combined dark matter search towards dwarf spheroidal galaxies with Fermi-LAT, HAWC, H.E.S.S., MAGIC, and VERITAS
LAT Collaboration, S. Abdollahi, L. Baldini +586
Dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) are excellent targets for indirect dark matter (DM) searches using gamma-ray telescopes because they are thought to have high DM content and a low…
