First tests and long-term prospects of Geigermode avalanche photodiodes as camera sensors for IACTs
Eckart Lorenz, Razmick Mirzoyan, Hiroko Miyamoto +2
Geigermode avalanche photodiodes (G-APD) are novel photodetectors, which can detect single photons. This type of diodes might become an alternative to photomultipliers (PMT) in nex…

Very-High-Energy Gamma Rays from a Distant Quasar: How Transparent Is the Universe?
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Albert
The atmospheric Cherenkov gamma-ray telescope MAGIC, designed for a low-energy threshold, has detected very-high-energy gamma rays from a giant flare of the distant Quasi-Stellar R…
