Deep observations of the globular cluster M15 with the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +153
A population of globular clusters (GCs) has been recently established by the Fermi-LAT telescope as a new class of GeV -ray sources. Leptons accelerated to TeV energies, in the…
The gamma-ray source AGL J2241+4454 as the possible counterpart of MWC 656
P. Munar-Adrover, S. Sabatini, G. Piano +5
The AGILE satellite discovered the transient source AGL J2241+4454 in 2010 which triggered the study of the associated field allowing for the discovery of the first Be/black hole b…
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…
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…
The major upgrade of the MAGIC telescopes, Part I: The hardware improvements and the commissioning of the system
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksic, S. Ansoldi +162
The MAGIC telescopes are two Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) located on the Canary island of La Palma. The telescopes are designed to measure Cherenkov light from…
