Very-high-energy gamma-rays from the Universe's middle age: detection of the z=0.940 blazar PKS 1441+25 with MAGIC

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +246

The flat-spectrum radio quasar PKS 1441+25 at a redshift of z = 0.940 is detected between 40 and 250 GeV with a significance of 25.5 σ using the MAGIC telescopes. Together with the…

Teraelectronvolt pulsed emission from the Crab pulsar detected by MAGIC

MAGIC Collaboration, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +139

Aims: To investigate the extension of the very-high-energy spectral tail of the Crab pulsar at energies above 400 GeV. Methods: We analyzed 320 hours of good quality data of…

Discovery of TeV gamma-ray emission from the pulsar wind nebula 3C 58 by MAGIC

R. López-Coto, E. Carmona, W. Bednarek +6

The pulsar wind nebula (PWN) 3C 58 has been proposed as a good candidate for detection at VHE (VHE; E>100 GeV) for many years. It is powered by one of the highest spin-down power p…

Very high energy gamma-ray follow-up observations of novae and dwarf novae with the MAGIC telescopes

R. López-Coto, J. Sitarek, W. Bednarek +4

In the last few years the Fermi-LAT instrument has detected GeV gamma-ray emission from several novae. Such GeV emission can be interpreted in terms of inverse Compton emission fro…

The Topo-trigger: A new stereo trigger for lowering the energy threshold of IACTs

R. López-Coto, D. Mazin, R. Paoletti +2

The purpose of the hardware presented in this contribution is to decrease the energy threshold of the MAGIC telescopes without significantly increasing the data acquisition rate. T…

Very-high-energy γ-ray observations of novae and dwarf novae with the MAGIC telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +148

Context. In the last five years the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) instrument detected GeV γ-ray emission from five novae. The GeV emission can be interpreted in terms of an inve…

MAGIC detection of short-term variability of the high-peaked BL Lac object 1ES 0806+524

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +152

The high-frequency-peaked BL Lac (HBL) 1ES 0806+524 (z = 0.138) was discovered in VHE rays in 2008. Until now, the broad-band spectrum of 1ES 0806+524 has been only poorly char…

Very high energy gamma-ray follow-up observations of novae and dwarf novae with the MAGIC telescopes

J. Sitarek, W. Bednarek, R. Lopez-Coto +1

In the last few years the Fermi -LAT instrument has detected GeV gamma-ray emission from a few novae. Such GeV emission can be interpreted in terms of an inverse Compton process of…

Discovery of TeV gamma-ray emission from the Pulsar Wind Nebula 3C 58 by MAGIC

O. Blanch Bigas, R. Lopez, E. Carmona +2

The Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) 3C 58 is energized by one of the highest spin-down power pulsars known (5% of Crab pulsar) and it has been compared to the Crab Nebula due to their mor…
