Black hole lightning due to particle acceleration at subhorizon scales
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +151
Supermassive black holes with masses of millions to billions of solar masses are commonly found in the centers of galaxies. Astronomers seek to image jet formation using radio inte…
Unprecedented study of the broadband emission of Mrk 421 during flaring activity in March 2010
The MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +251
A flare from the TeV blazar Mrk 421, occurring in March 2010, was observed for 13 consecutive days from radio to very high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) gamma-rays with MAGIC, VERITAS,…
Discovery of very high energy gamma-ray emission from the blazar 1ES 0033+595 by the MAGIC telescopes
J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +157
The number of known very high energy (VHE) blazars is , which is very small in comparison to the number of blazars detected in other frequencies. This situation is a hand…
Multiwavelength observations of Mrk 501 in 2008
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +256
Mrk 501 is one of the brightest blazars at TeV energies and has been extensively studied since its first VHE detection in 1996. Our goal is to characterize in detail the source gam…
First broadband characterization and redshift determination of the VHE blazar MAGIC J2001+439
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +167
We aim to characterize the broadband emission from 2FGL J2001.1+4352, which has been associated with the unknown-redshift blazar MG4 J200112+4352. Based on its gamma-ray spectral p…
Probing the very-high-energy gamma-ray spectral curvature in the blazar PG 1553+113 with the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +152
PG 1553+113 is a very-high-energy (VHE, ) -ray emitter classified as a BL Lac object. Its redshift is constrained by intergalactic absorption lines in the r…
MAGIC search for VHE -ray emission from AE Aquarii in a multiwavelength context
J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +152
It has been claimed that the nova-like cataclysmic variable (CV) AE Aquarii (AE Aqr) is a very-high-energy (VHE, 100 GeV) source both on observational and theoretical grounds.…
Multifrequency Studies of the Peculiar Quasar 4C +21.35 During the 2010 Flaring Activity
M. Ackermann, M. Ajello, A. Allafort +288
The discovery of rapidly variable Very High Energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray emission from 4C +21.35 (PKS 1222+216) by MAGIC on 2010 June 17, triggered by the high activity dete…
Detection of bridge emission above 50 GeV from the Crab pulsar with the MAGIC telescopes
J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +153
The Crab pulsar is the only astronomical pulsed source detected at very high energy (VHE, E>100GeV) gamma-rays. The emission mechanism of VHE pulsation is not yet fully understood,…
MAGIC reveals a complex morphology within the unidentified gamma-ray source HESS J1857+026
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +158
HESS J1857+026 is an extended TeV gamma-ray source that was discovered by H.E.S.S. as part of its Galactic plane survey. Given its broadband spectral energy distribution and its sp…
MAGIC gamma-ray and multifrequency observations of flat spectrum radio quasar PKS 1510-089 in early 2012
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +218
Among more than fifty blazars detected in very high energy (VHE, E>100GeV) gamma-rays, only three belong to the subclass of Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQs). MAGIC observed FSRQ…
MAGIC long-term study of the distant TeV blazar PKS 1424+240 in a multiwavelength context
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +168
We present a study of the very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray emission of the blazar PKS 1424+240 observed with the MAGIC telescopes. The primary aim of this paper is the…
