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-…

Teraelectronvolt pulsed emission from the Crab pulsar detected by MAGIC

MAGIC Collaboration, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +139

Aims: To investigate the extension of the very-high-energy spectral tail of the Crab pulsar at energies above 400 GeV. Methods: We analyzed 320 hours of good quality data of…

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…

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…
