Insights into the emission of the blazar 1ES 1011+496 through unprecedented broadband observations during 2011 and 2012

J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +161

1ES 1011+496 was discovered in very high energy (VHE, E >100 GeV) -rays with MAGIC in 2007. The absence of simultaneous data at lower energies led to a rather incomp…

MAGIC observations of the February 2014 flare of 1ES 1011+496 and ensuing constraint of the EBL density

M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +144

In February-March 2014, the MAGIC telescopes observed the high-frequency peaked BL Lac 1ES 1011+496 (z=0.212) in flaring state at very-high energy (VHE, E>100GeV). The flux reached…

Limits to dark matter annihilation cross-section from a combined analysis of MAGIC and Fermi-LAT observations of dwarf satellite galaxies

M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +154

We present the first joint analysis of gamma-ray data from the MAGIC Cherenkov telescopes and the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) to search for gamma-ray signals from dark matter…

Data compression for the First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope

M. L. Ahnen, M. Balbo, M. Bergmann +27

The First Geiger-mode Avalanche photodiode (G-APD) Cherenkov Telescope (FACT) has been operating on the Canary island of La Palma since October 2011. Operations were automated so t…

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…
