Multiband variability studies and novel broadband SED modeling of Mrk 501 in 2009

M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +290

We present an extensive study of the BL Lac object Mrk 501 based on a data set collected during the multi-instrument campaign spanning from 2009 March 15 to 2009 August 1 which inc…

Observations of Sagittarius A* during the pericenter passage of the G2 object with MAGIC

M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +153

Context. We present the results of a multi-year monitoring campaign of the Galactic Center (GC) with the MAGIC telescopes. These observations were primarily motivated by reports th…

A search for spectral hysteresis and energy-dependent time lags from X-ray and TeV gamma-ray observations of Mrk 421

A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +220

Blazars are variable emitters across all wavelengths over a wide range of timescales, from months down to minutes. It is therefore essential to observe blazars simultaneously at di…

Very High-Energy Gamma-Ray Follow-Up Program Using Neutrino Triggers from IceCube

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, K. Abraham +537

We describe and report the status of a neutrino-triggered program in IceCube that generates real-time alerts for gamma-ray follow-up observations by atmospheric-Cherenkov telescope…

Detection of very high energy gamma-ray emission from the gravitationally-lensed blazar QSO B0218+357 with the MAGIC telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +151

Context. QSO B0218+357 is a gravitationally lensed blazar located at a redshift of 0.944. The gravitational lensing splits the emitted radiation into two components, spatially indi…

Long-term multi-wavelength variability and correlation study of Markarian 421 from 2007 to 2009

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +176

We study the multi-band variability and correlations of the TeV blazar Mrk 421 on year time scales, which can bring additional insight on the processes responsible for its broadban…

Super-orbital variability of LS I +61°303 at TeV energies

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +150

The gamma-ray binary LS I +61303 is a well established source from centimeter radio up to very high energy (VHE; E100 GeV). Its broadband emission shows a periodicity…

Multi-Wavelength Observations of the Blazar 1ES 1011+496 in Spring 2008

The MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +158

The BL Lac object 1ES 1011+496 was discovered at Very High Energy gamma-rays by MAGIC in spring 2007. Before that the source was little studied in different wavelengths. Therefore…

Insights into the emission of the blazar 1ES 1011+496 through unprecedented broadband observations during 2011 and 2012

J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +161

1ES 1011+496 was discovered in very high energy (VHE, E >100 GeV) -rays with MAGIC in 2007. The absence of simultaneous data at lower energies led to a rather incomp…

Investigating the peculiar emission from the new VHE gamma-ray source H1722+119

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +159

The MAGIC (Major Atmospheric Gamma-ray Imaging Cherenkov) telescopes observed the BL Lac object H1722+119 (redshift unknown) for six consecutive nights between 2013 May 17 and 22,…

MAGIC observations of the February 2014 flare of 1ES 1011+496 and ensuing constraint of the EBL density

M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +144

In February-March 2014, the MAGIC telescopes observed the high-frequency peaked BL Lac 1ES 1011+496 (z=0.212) in flaring state at very-high energy (VHE, E>100GeV). The flux reached…

Limits to dark matter annihilation cross-section from a combined analysis of MAGIC and Fermi-LAT observations of dwarf satellite galaxies

M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +154

We present the first joint analysis of gamma-ray data from the MAGIC Cherenkov telescopes and the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) to search for gamma-ray signals from dark matter…

Deep observation of the NGC 1275 region with MAGIC: search of diffuse gamma-ray emission from cosmic rays in the Perseus cluster

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +154

Clusters of galaxies are expected to be reservoirs of cosmic rays (CRs) that should produce diffuse gamma-ray emission due to their hadronic interactions with the intra-cluster med…
