We present an extensive study of the BL Lac object Mrk 501 based on a data set collected during the multi-instrument campaign spanning from 2009 March 15 to 2009 August 1 which inc…
Observations of Sagittarius A* during the pericenter passage of the G2 object with MAGIC
M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +153
Context. We present the results of a multi-year monitoring campaign of the Galactic Center (GC) with the MAGIC telescopes. These observations were primarily motivated by reports th…
A search for spectral hysteresis and energy-dependent time lags from X-ray and TeV gamma-ray observations of Mrk 421
A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +220
Blazars are variable emitters across all wavelengths over a wide range of timescales, from months down to minutes. It is therefore essential to observe blazars simultaneously at di…
Very High-Energy Gamma-Ray Follow-Up Program Using Neutrino Triggers from IceCube
IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, K. Abraham +537
We describe and report the status of a neutrino-triggered program in IceCube that generates real-time alerts for gamma-ray follow-up observations by atmospheric-Cherenkov telescope…
First Study of Combined Blazar Light Curves with FACT and HAWC
Daniela Dorner, Robert J. Lauer, : +28
For studying variable sources like blazars, it is crucial to achieve unbiased monitoring, either with dedicated telescopes in pointing mode or survey instruments. At TeV energies,…

The CTA Consortium, :, A. Abchiche +1387
List of contributions from the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) Consortium presented at the 6th International Symposium on High-Energy Gamma-Ray Astronomy (Gamma 2016), July 11-15,…
Detection of very high energy gamma-ray emission from the gravitationally-lensed blazar QSO B0218+357 with the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +151
Context. QSO B0218+357 is a gravitationally lensed blazar located at a redshift of 0.944. The gravitational lensing splits the emitted radiation into two components, spatially indi…
Uncertainty Limits on Solutions of Inverse Problems over Multiple Orders of Magnitude using Bootstrap Methods: An Astroparticle Physics Example
Sabrina Einecke, Katharina Proksch, Nicolai Bissantz +2
Astroparticle experiments such as IceCube or MAGIC require a deconvolution of their measured data with respect to the response function of the detector to provide the distributions…
Long-term multi-wavelength variability and correlation study of Markarian 421 from 2007 to 2009
MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +176
We study the multi-band variability and correlations of the TeV blazar Mrk 421 on year time scales, which can bring additional insight on the processes responsible for its broadban…
Bokeh Mirror Alignment for Cherenkov Telescopes
M. L. Ahnen, D. Baack, M. Balbo +29
Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) need imaging optics with large apertures and high image intensities to map the faint Cherenkov light emitted from cosmic ray air sh…
Normalized and Asynchronous Mirror Alignment for Cherenkov Telescopes
M. L. Ahnen, D. Baack, M. Balbo +29
Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) need imaging optics with large apertures and high image intensities to map the faint Cherenkov light emitted from cosmic ray air sh…
Super-orbital variability of LS I +61°303 at TeV energies
MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +150
The gamma-ray binary LS I +61303 is a well established source from centimeter radio up to very high energy (VHE; E100 GeV). Its broadband emission shows a periodicity…
Multiscale inference for a multivariate density with applications to X-ray astronomy
Konstantin Eckle, Nicolai Bissantz, Holger Dette +2
In this paper we propose methods for inference of the geometric features of a multivariate density. Our approach uses multiscale tests for the monotonicity of the density at arbitr…
Multi-Wavelength Observations of the Blazar 1ES 1011+496 in Spring 2008
The MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +158
The BL Lac object 1ES 1011+496 was discovered at Very High Energy gamma-rays by MAGIC in spring 2007. Before that the source was little studied in different wavelengths. Therefore…
