Very high energy gamma rays coming from extra-galactic sources can interact with intergalactic radiation fields. This process may result in electromagnetic cascades with the following cycle: the production of electron-positron pairs and…
The ground-based imaging atmospheric Cherenkov technique is currently the most powerful observation method for very high energy gamma rays. With its specially designed camera and readout system, the MAGIC Telescope is capable of observing…
The MAGIC telescope located on the Roque de los Muchachos on the Canary Island La Palma at a height of 2200 m a.s.l. is able to point to the sea. This permits a search for air shower signatures induced by particles coming out of the Earth.…
The MAGIC collaboration has studied the high peaked BL-Lac object 1ES1218+30.4 at a redshift z = 0.182, using the MAGIC imaging air Cherenkov telescope located on the Canary island of La Palma. A gamma-ray signal was observed with 6.4sigma…
We present preliminary results on Dark Matter searches from observations of the Perseus galaxy cluster with the MAGIC Telescopes. MAGIC is a system of two Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes located in the Canary island of La Palma,…
The non-thermal jet emission in active galactic nuclei covers several orders of magnitude in the frequency range. Hence the observational approach needs multi-wavelength (MWL) campaigns collecting data in the radio, optical, UV, X-rays,…
MAGIC has been exploring the sky at Very High Energy gamma-rays (50 GeV - 50 TeV) since 2004, operating first with a single telescope and from 2009 with two telescopes in stereoscopic mode. MAGIC has carried out a observational program…
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next generation very high energy gamma-ray observatory covering the 20 GeV - 300 TeV energy range with unprecedented sensitivity, angular and energy resolution. With a site in each hemisphere, CTA…
The Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) telescope system is located on the Canary Island of La Palma and inspects the very high-energy (VHE, few tens of GeV and above) gamma-ray sky. MAGIC consists of two imaging atmospheric…
The Major Atmospheric Gamma-ray Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) Telescope collaboration is constructing a large Cherenkov telescope (17 m diameter) for the exploration of the gamma-ray energy regime above 10 GeV with high sensitivity. One of the…
The MAGIC telescopes are one of the three major IACTs (Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes) for observation of gamma rays in the TeV regime currently operative. MAGIC functions since 2003, and has published data from more than 60…
We discuss preliminary studies concerning a large-diameter gamma-ray telescope, to be part of an array of telescopes installed at the existing observation site on the Canary island of La Palma. One of the telescopes in the array will be…
The MAGIC TeV gamma-ray telescopes have devoted several hundreds hour of observation time in about a decade, to hunt for particle dark matter indirect signatures in gamma rays, from various candidate targets of interest in the sky: the…
Recently, the Galactic Center has been reported to be a source of very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays by the VERITAS, CANGAROO and HESS experiments. The energy spectra as measured by these experiments show substantial differences. In this…
Iron cosmic rays represent the most abundant heavy nuclei at energies above 1 TeV, with their production thought to be primarily originated by astrophysical sources. Therefore, measuring the iron spectrum provides crucial insights into the…
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 GRBs during the prompt phase, i.e. the initial burst of high-energy…
Currently three ground-based Air Cherenkov detectors with energy thresholds below 50 GeV are being commissioned (CELESTE and STACEE) or under construction (MAGIC Telescope). Based on the expected performance of the MAGIC Telescope and with…
The search for detection of gamma-rays from distant AGNs by Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) is challenging at high redshifts, not only because of lower flux due to the distance of the source, but also due to the consequent…
The MAGIC experiment, a very large Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescope (IACT) with sensitivity to low energy (E < 100 GeV) VHE gamma rays, has been operated since 2004. It has been found that the gamma/hadron separation in IACTs becomes much…
The MAGIC Telescope, now taking data with an energy threshold well below 100 GeV, will soon be able to take full advantage of the fast slewing capability of its altazimuthal mount. Exploiting the link with the GCN network, the MAGIC…
