Context. QSO B1420+326 is a blazar classified as a Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar (FSRQ). In the beginning of 2020 it underwent an enhanced flux state. An extensive multiwavelength cam…
Observation of a sudden cessation of a very-high-energy gamma-ray flare in PKS 1510-089 with H.E.S.S. and MAGIC in May 2016
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, H. Abdalla, R. Adam +430
The flat spectrum radio quasar (FSRQ) PKS 1510-089 is known for its complex multiwavelength behavior, and is one of only a few FSRQs detected at very high energy (VHE, GeV…
MAGIC observations of the nearby short gamma-ray burst GRB 160821B
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +188
The coincident detection of GW170817 in gravitational waves and electromagnetic radiation spanning the radio to MeV gamma-ray bands provided the first direct evidence that short ga…
Detection of the Geminga pulsar with MAGIC hints at a power-law tail emission beyond 15 GeV
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +190
We report the detection of pulsed gamma-ray emission from the Geminga pulsar (PSR J0633+1746) between GeV and GeV. This is the first time a middle-aged pulsar has been…
An intermittent extreme BL Lac: MWL study of 1ES 2344+514 in an enhanced state
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +215
Extreme High-frequency BL~Lacs (EHBL) feature their synchrotron peak of the broadband spectral energy distribution (SED) at 10\,Hz. The BL~Lac object 1ES~23…
Studying the nature of the unidentified gamma-ray source HESS J1841-055 with the MAGIC telescopes
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +184
We investigate the physical nature and origin of the gamma-ray emission from the extended source HESS J1841-055 observed at TeV and GeV energies. We observed HESS J1841-055 at TeV…
Sensitivity of the Cherenkov Telescope Array to a dark matter signal from the Galactic centre
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Consortium, :, A. Acharyya +449
We provide an updated assessment of the power of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) to search for thermally produced dark matter at the TeV scale, via the associated gamma-ray sig…
Observation of inverse Compton emission from a long -ray burst
V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +301
Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from ultra-relativistic jets launched from the collapsing cores of dying massive stars. They are characterised by an initial phase o…
Teraelectronvolt emission from the -ray burst GRB 190114C
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +177
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) of the long-duration class are the most luminous sources of electromagnetic radiation known in the Universe. They are generated by outflows of plasma ejecte…
Testing two-component models on very-high-energy gamma-ray emitting BL Lac objects
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +201
Context. It has become evident that one-zone synchrotron self-Compton models are not always adequate for very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emitting blazars. While two-component mode…
