GRB Observations with the MAGIC Telescopes
MAGIC is currently the most suitable instrument to perform observations of the prompt and early afterglow emission from Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) at energies above 25 GeV. The instrument is designed to have the lowest possible energy threshold and fastest reaction time to GRB Coordinates Network (GCN) alerts. The MAGIC-I telescope started to follow-up GCN alerts in the beginning of 2005. Since th...
متن کاملObservations of IntraDay Variable sources with the Effelsberg and Urumqi Radio Telescopes
J. L. Han National Astronomical Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100012, PR China E-mail: [email protected] A sample of classical IntraDay Variable (IDV) and IDV candidate sources has been monitored with the Urumqi 25m telescope and the Effelsberg 100m telescope. Aim of the project is to investigate the origin of IntraDay Variability, a phenomenon which has been observed in about...
متن کاملObservations of Active Galactic Nuclei with Ground-Based Cherenkov Telescopes
Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) allow us to observe Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) in the 100 GeV to 20 TeV energy range with high sensitivity. The TeV γ-ray observations of the nine blazars detected so far in this energy range reveal rapid flux and spectral variability on time scales of several hours, sometimes even on time scales of a few minutes. While simple synchrotron-Comp...
متن کاملExecution of queue-scheduled observations with the Gemini 8m telescopes
Queue scheduling will be one of the major modes of operation of the Gemini 8m telescopes in which scientific programs will be carried out on behalf of applicants by Gemini staff. Use of a substantial fraction of the available telescope time in this manner will permit access to the exquisite conditions of image quality and background which the telescopes are designed to exploit as well as matchi...
متن کاملObservations of high energy neutrinos with water/ice neutrino telescopes
The search for high energy neutrinos of astrophysical origin is being conducted today with two water/ice Cherenkov experiments. New instruments of higher performance are now in construction and more are in the R&D phase. No sources have been found to date. Upper limits on neutrino fluxes are approaching model predictions. Results are reported on the search for point sources, diffuse fluxes, gam...
