MAGIC observations and multiwavelength properties of the quasar 3C279 in 2007 and 2009

The MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, L. A. Antonelli +144

Context. 3C 279, the first quasar discovered to emit VHE gamma-rays by the MAGIC telescope in 2006, was reobserved by MAGIC in January 2007 during a major optical flare and from De…

Simultaneous Multiwavelength Observations of Markarian 421 During Outburst

The VERITAS Collaboration, I. de la Calle Perez, A. Ibarra +2

We report on the results of two coordinated multiwavelength campaigns that focused on the blazar Markarian 421 during its 2006 and 2008 outbursts. These campaigns obtained UV and X…

First bounds on the VHE gamma-ray emission from isolated Wolf-Rayet binary systems

Diego F. Torres, Javier Rico, Vincenzo Vitale

Different theoretical models predict VHE gamma-ray emission to arise in tight binary star systems (high mass-loss and high wind speeds), which has not been confirmed experimentally…

The June 2008 flare of Markarian 421 from optical to TeV energies

R. M. Wagner, I. Donnarumma, J. Grube +6

We present optical to very-high energy (VHE) gamma-ray observations of Mrk 421 between 2008 May 24 and June 23. A high-energy (HE) gamma-ray signal was detected by AGILE-GRID durin…

Suzaku and Multi-wavelength Observations of OJ 287 during the Periodic Optical Outburst in 2007

Hiromi Seta, Naoki Isobe, Makoto S. Tashiro +10

Suzaku observations of the blazar OJ 287 were performed in 2007 April 10--13 and November 7--9. They correspond to a quiescent and a flaring state, respectively. The X-ray spectra…

The June 2008 flare of Markarian 421 from optical to TeV energies

The Agile Collaboration, Webt Collaboration, Magic Collaboration +2

We present optical, X-ray, high energy ( GeV) and very high energy ( GeV; VHE) observations of the high-frequency peaked blazar Mrk 421 taken betwee…
