Multiwavelength Study of Quiescent States of Mrk 421 with Unprecedented Hard X-Ray Coverage Provided by NuSTAR in 2013
M. Baloković, D. Paneque, G. Madejski +305
We present coordinated multiwavelength observations of the bright, nearby BL Lac object Mrk 421 taken in 2013 January-March, involving GASP-WEBT, Swift, NuSTAR, Fermi-LAT, MAGIC, V…
Very-high-energy gamma-rays from the Universe's middle age: detection of the z=0.940 blazar PKS 1441+25 with MAGIC
MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +246
The flat-spectrum radio quasar PKS 1441+25 at a redshift of z = 0.940 is detected between 40 and 250 GeV with a significance of 25.5 σ using the MAGIC telescopes. Together with the…
VHE gamma-ray observations of transient and variable stellar objects with the MAGIC Telescopes
A. Fernández-Barral, O. Blanch, E. de Oña Wilhelmi +6
Galactic transients, X-ray and gamma-ray binaries provide a proper environment for particle acceleration. This leads to the production of gamma rays with energies reaching the GeV-…
First NuSTAR Observations of Mrk 501 within a Radio to TeV Multi-Instrument Campaign
A. Furniss, K. Noda, S. Boggs +273
We report on simultaneous broadband observations of the TeV-emitting blazar Markarian 501 between 1 April and 10 August 2013, including the first detailed characterization of the s…
Very-high-energy γ-ray observations of novae and dwarf novae with the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +148
Context. In the last five years the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) instrument detected GeV γ-ray emission from five novae. The GeV emission can be interpreted in terms of an inve…
MAGIC detection of short-term variability of the high-peaked BL Lac object 1ES 0806+524
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +152
The high-frequency-peaked BL Lac (HBL) 1ES 0806+524 (z = 0.138) was discovered in VHE rays in 2008. Until now, the broad-band spectrum of 1ES 0806+524 has been only poorly char…
The 2009 multiwavelength campaign on Mrk 421: Variability and correlation studies
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +270
We performed a 4.5-month multi-instrument campaign (from radio to VHE gamma rays) on Mrk421 between January 2009 and June 2009, which included VLBA, F-GAMMA, GASP-WEBT, Swift, RXTE…
MAGIC observations of MWC 656, the only known Be/BH system
J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +149
Context: MWC 656 has recently been established as the first observationally detected high-mass X-ray binary system containing a Be star and a black hole (BH). The system has been a…
