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…
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…
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…
Very-High-Energy Gamma Rays from a Distant Quasar: How Transparent Is the Universe?
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Albert
The atmospheric Cherenkov gamma-ray telescope MAGIC, designed for a low-energy threshold, has detected very-high-energy gamma rays from a giant flare of the distant Quasi-Stellar R…
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…
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…
A galaxy overdensity at z=0.401 associated with an X-ray emitting structure of Warm-Hot Intergalactic Medium
F. Mannucci, G. Bonnoli, L. Zappacosta +2
We present the results of spectroscopic observations of galaxies associated with the diffuse X-ray emitting structure discovered by Zappacosta et al. (2002). After measuring the re…
