    MAGIC observations of PG 1553+113 during a multiwavelength campaign in July 2006
    The active galactic nucleus PG 1553+113 was observed by the MAGIC telescope in July 2006 during a multiwavelength campaign, in which telescopes in the optical...

    MAGIC observations of the diffuse γ-ray emission in the vicinity of the Galactic center
    Aims: In the presence of a sufficient amount of target material, γ-rays can be used as a tracer in the search for sources of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs). Here we...

    MAGIC observations of the February 2014 flare of 1ES 1011+496 and ensuing constraint of the EBL density
    Context. During February-March 2014, the MAGIC telescopes observed the high-frequency peaked BL Lac 1ES 1011+496 (z = 0.212) in flaring state at very-high...

    MAGIC observations of the giant radio galaxy M 87 in a low-emission state between 2005 and 2007
    Context. We present the results of a long M 87 monitoring campaign in very high energy γ-rays with the MAGIC-I Cherenkov telescope. Aims: We aim to model the...

    MAGIC observations provide compelling evidence of hadronic multi-TeV emission from the putative PeVatron SNR G106.3+2.7
    Context. Certain types of supernova remnants (SNRs) in our Galaxy are assumed to be PeVatrons, capable of accelerating cosmic rays (CRs) to ~ PeV energies...

    MAGIC reveals a complex morphology within the unidentified gamma-ray source HESS J1857+026
    Aims: HESS J1857+026 is an extended TeV gamma-ray source that was discovered by H.E.S.S. as part of its Galactic plane survey. Given its broadband spectral...

    MAGIC search for VHE γ-ray emission from AE Aquarii in a multiwavelength context
    Context. It has been claimed that the nova-like cataclysmic variable AE Aquarii (AE Aqr) is a very-high-energy (VHE, E> 100 GeV) source both on observational...

    MAGIC TeV gamma-ray observations of Markarian 421 during multiwavelength campaigns in 2006
    Context. Wide-range spectral coverage of blazar-type active galactic nuclei is of paramount importance for understanding the particle acceleration mechanisms...

    MAGIC upper limits to the VHE gamma-ray flux of 3C 454.3 in high emission state
    Aims: We report upper limits to the very high energy flux (E>100 GeV) of the flat spectrum radio quasar 3C 454.3 (z=0.859) derived by the Cherenkov telescope...
