Observation of top quark production in proton-nucleus collisions

Georgios Konstantinos Krintiras

The multi-TeV energies available at LHC have opened up the possibility to measure, for the first time, various large-mass elementary particles in nuclear collisions. The current st…

Constraining Lorentz invariance violation using the Crab Pulsar emission observed up to TeV energies by MAGIC

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +142

Spontaneous breaking of Lorentz symmetry at energies on the order of the Planck energy or lower is predicted by many quantum gravity theories, implying non-trivial dispersion relat…

Performance of the MAGIC telescopes under moonlight

D. Guberman, P. Colin

MAGIC, a system of two imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes, achieves its best performance under dark conditions, i.e. in absence of moonlight or twilight. Since operating the…

Search for very-high-energy gamma-ray emission from the microquasar Cygnus X-1 with the MAGIC telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +144

The microquasar Cygnus X-1 displays the two typical soft and hard X-ray states of a black-hole transient. During the latter, Cygnus X-1 shows a one-sided relativistic radio-jet. Re…

MAGIC observations of the microquasar V404 Cygni during the 2015 outburst

M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +142

The microquasar V404 Cygni underwent a series of outbursts in 2015, June 15-31, during which its flux in hard X-rays (20-40 keV) reached about 40 times the Crab Nebula flux. Becaus…
