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…

A method to correct IACT data for atmospheric absorption due to the Saharan Air Layer

Daniela Dorner, Kari Nilsson, Thomas Bretz

Using the atmosphere as a detector volume, Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) depend highly on the properties and the condition of the air mass above the telescope. On the Ca…

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.…
