Unprecedented study of the broadband emission of Mrk 421 during flaring activity in March 2010
The MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +251
A flare from the TeV blazar Mrk 421, occurring in March 2010, was observed for 13 consecutive days from radio to very high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) gamma-rays with MAGIC, VERITAS,…
First broadband characterization and redshift determination of the VHE blazar MAGIC J2001+439
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +167
We aim to characterize the broadband emission from 2FGL J2001.1+4352, which has been associated with the unknown-redshift blazar MG4 J200112+4352. Based on its gamma-ray spectral p…
The major upgrade of the MAGIC telescopes, Part I: The hardware improvements and the commissioning of the system
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksic, S. Ansoldi +162
The MAGIC telescopes are two Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) located on the Canary island of La Palma. The telescopes are designed to measure Cherenkov light from…
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…
Multifrequency Studies of the Peculiar Quasar 4C +21.35 During the 2010 Flaring Activity
M. Ackermann, M. Ajello, A. Allafort +288
The discovery of rapidly variable Very High Energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray emission from 4C +21.35 (PKS 1222+216) by MAGIC on 2010 June 17, triggered by the high activity dete…
Detection of bridge emission above 50 GeV from the Crab pulsar with the MAGIC telescopes
J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +153
The Crab pulsar is the only astronomical pulsed source detected at very high energy (VHE, E>100GeV) gamma-rays. The emission mechanism of VHE pulsation is not yet fully understood,…
MAGIC reveals a complex morphology within the unidentified gamma-ray source HESS J1857+026
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +158
HESS J1857+026 is an extended TeV gamma-ray source that was discovered by H.E.S.S. as part of its Galactic plane survey. Given its broadband spectral energy distribution and its sp…
MAGIC gamma-ray and multifrequency observations of flat spectrum radio quasar PKS 1510-089 in early 2012
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +218
Among more than fifty blazars detected in very high energy (VHE, E>100GeV) gamma-rays, only three belong to the subclass of Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQs). MAGIC observed FSRQ…
MAGIC long-term study of the distant TeV blazar PKS 1424+240 in a multiwavelength context
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +168
We present a study of the very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray emission of the blazar PKS 1424+240 observed with the MAGIC telescopes. The primary aim of this paper is the…
