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…

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.…
