The Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) telescope was designed for the detection of photon sources >~50 GeV. The measurement of highly-inclined...
Liverpool telescope 2: a new robotic facility for rapid transient follow-up
The Liverpool Telescope is one of the world's premier facilities for time domain astronomy. The time domain landscape is set to radically change in the coming...
Los telescopios MAGIC detectan el primer estallido de rayos gamma en muy altas energías
Esta observación sin precedentes aporta nuevos indicios para comprender los procesos físicos que suceden en las explosiones más violentas en el universo. Los...
Los telescopios MAGIC ponen a prueba la estructura cuántica del espacio-tiempo
La detección de un estallido de rayos gamma por los telescopios MAGIC, en el Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, permite estudiar si la velocidad de la luz...
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are explosive transient events occurring at cosmological distances, releasing a large amount of energy as electromagnetic radiation over...
MAGIC Observation of the Prompt and Afterglow Emission from GRBs
During two years since the beginning of operation, the MAGIC telescope could observe several GRB events in the prompt and early afterglow phase. Thanks to its...
MAGIC Observations of the Nearby Short Gamma-Ray Burst GRB 160821B
The coincident detection of GW170817 in gravitational waves and electromagnetic radiation spanning the radio to MeV gamma-ray bands provided the first direct...
MAGIC is built to perform observations of prompt and early afterglow emission from Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) above 25 GeV. The instrument is designed to have the...
MAGIC upper limits on the Very High Energy emission from GRBs
Since the beginning of its operation in April 2005, the MAGIC telescope was able to observe ten different GRB events since their early beginning, even while the...
