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…
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…
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 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…
FACT - Monitoring Blazars at Very High Energies
D. Dorner, M. L. Ahnen, M. Bergmann +26
The First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope (FACT) was built on the Canary Island of La Palma in October 2011 as a proof of principle for silicon based photosensors in Cherenkov Astronomy.…
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…
