Constraints on the VHE counterpart of two binary black hole mergers observed by the MAGIC and CTAO LST-1 telescopes

K. Abe, S. Abe, J. Abhir +439

We present very-high-energy gamma-ray observations of two binary black hole merger candidates, GW240615_113620 and GW241125_010116, performed with the Major Atmospheric Gamma Imagi…

Detection of the distant quasar OP 313 with the first Large-Sized Telescope of CTAO

K. Abe, S. Abe, J. Abhir +412

In December 2023, the Large-Sized Telescope prototype (LST-1) detected for the first time VHE -ray emission from the FSRQ OP~313 becoming the furthest blazar ever observed at V…

First detection of VHE gamma-ray signal from the FSRQ TON 0599

MAGIC Collaboration, K. Abe, S. Abe +245

TON\,0599 (z=0.7247) belongs to the few flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) detected in the very high energy (VHE, \,GeV) gamma-ray band. Its redshift makes it currently o…
