Spectral Energy Distribution of Markarian 501: Quiescent State vs. Extreme Outburst

The VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, T. Arlen +225

The very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) blazar Markarian 501 has a well-studied history of extreme spectral variability and is an excellent laboratory for studying the physical pro…

Insights Into the High-Energy Gamma-ray Emission of Markarian 501 from Extensive Multifrequency Observations in the Fermi Era

LAT collaboration, A. A. Abdo et al., the MAGIC collaboration +6

We report on the gamma-ray activity of the blazar Mrk 501 during the first 480 days of Fermi operation. We find that the average LAT gamma-ray spectrum of Mrk 501 can be well descr…

Detection of very high energy gamma-ray emission from the Perseus cluster head-tail galaxy IC 310 by the MAGIC telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, L. A. Antonelli +151

We report on the detection with the MAGIC telescopes of very high energy gamma-rays from IC 310, a head-tail radio galaxy in the Perseus galaxy cluster, observed during the interva…

MAGIC Upper Limits for two Milagro-detected, Bright Fermi Sources in the Region of SNR G65.1+0.6

J. Aleksić, L. A. Antonelli, P. Antoranz +144

We report on the observation of the region around supernova remnant G65.1+0.6 with the stand-alone MAGIC-I telescope. This region hosts the two bright GeV gamma-ray sources 1FGL J1…

Magic constraints on Gamma-ray emission from Cygnus X-3

J. Aleksić, L. A. Antonelli, P. Antoranz +156

Cygnus X-3 is a microquasar consisting of an accreting compact object orbiting around a Wolf-Rayet star. It has been detected at radio frequencies and up to high-energy gamma rays…

MAGIC observation of the GRB080430 afterglow

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, H. Anderhub +151

Context: Gamma-ray bursts are cosmological sources emitting radiation from the gamma-rays to the radio band. Substantial observational efforts have been devoted to the study of gam…

Search for an extended VHE gamma-ray emission from Mrk 421 and Mrk 501 with the MAGIC Telescope

MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, L. A. Antonelli +148

Context: Part of the very high energy -ray radiation coming from extragalactic sources is absorbed through the pair production process on the extragalactic background light phot…
