Limits on the flux of tau neutrinos from 1 PeV to 3 EeV with the MAGIC telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +142

A search for tau neutrino induced showers with the MAGIC telescopes is presented. The MAGIC telescopes located at an altitude of 2200 m a.s.l. in the Canary Island of La Palma, can…

Performance of the MAGIC telescopes under moonlight

D. Guberman, P. Colin

MAGIC, a system of two imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes, achieves its best performance under dark conditions, i.e. in absence of moonlight or twilight. Since operating the…

Study of hadron and gamma-ray acceptance of the MAGIC telescopes: towards an improved background estimation

E. Prandini, G. Pedaletti, P. Da Vela +5

The MAGIC telescopes are an array of two imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs) studying the gamma ray sky at very high-energies (VHE; E>100 GeV). The observations are pe…
