MAGIC observations of the giant radio galaxy M87 in a low-emission state between 2005 and 2007

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, E. A. Alvarez +155

We present the results of a long M87 monitoring campaign in very high energy -rays with the MAGIC-I Cherenkov telescope. We aim to model the persistent non-thermal jet emission…

MAGIC discovery of VHE Emission from the FSRQ PKS 1222+21

J. Aleksić, L. Antonelli, P. Antoranz +146

Very High Energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from the flat spectrum radio quasar (FSRQ) PKS 1222+21 (4C 21.35, z=0.432) was detected with the MAGIC Cherenkov telescopes during a short…

A search for Very High Energy gamma-ray emission from Scorpius X-1 with the MAGIC telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, E. A. Alvarez +150

The acceleration of particles up to GeV or higher energies in microquasars has been the subject of considerable theoretical and observational efforts in the past few years. Sco X-1…

Observations of the Blazar 3C 66A with the MAGIC Telescopes in Stereoscopic Mode

The MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, L. A. Antonelli +153

We report new observations of the intermediate-frequency peaked BL Lacertae object 3C 66A with the MAGIC telescopes. The data sample we use were taken in 2009 December and 2010 Jan…

Search for an extended VHE gamma-ray emission from Mrk 421 and Mrk 501 with the MAGIC Telescope

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, L. A. Antonelli +148

Context: Part of the very high energy -ray radiation coming from extragalactic sources is absorbed through the pair production process on the extragalactic background light phot…

Simultaneous Multiwavelength observation of Mkn 501 in a low state in 2006

The MAGIC Collaboration, H. Anderhub, R. Sato +4

We present results of the multiwavelength campaign on the TeV blazar Mkn 501 performed in 2006 July, including MAGIC for the VHE gamma-ray band and Suzaku for the X-ray band. A VHE…
