  1. MAGIC M.Teshima MPI für Physik, München (Werner-Heisenberg-Institut)

  2. MAGIC Telescope 17 m diameter parabolic reflecting surface (240 m2 ) Light weight Carbon fiber structure for fast repositioning high reflective diamond milled aluminum mirrors IPE IPE - 3.5o FOV camera - 576 high QE PMTs (QEmax= 30%) IPE NET CE Analog signal transport via optical fibers 3-level trigger system& 300 MHz FADC system Active mirror control(PSF: 90% of light in 0.1o inner pixel)

  3. Highlights of MAGIC observations last one and a half year Crab Nebular SZA & LZA Galactic Center HESS J1813 HESS J1834 13CO cloud GRB050713a GRB050904 (in prompt phase) Mrk421 (0.031) Mrk501 (0.034) IAU Circular #8562 1ES2344(z=0.044) 1ES1959 (0.047) 1ES1218(z=0.18) New Source PG 1553 (Z>0.25) New source

  4. Crab Nebula Preliminary

  5. HESS J1813-178Dark Particle Accelerator -- SNR

  6. HESS J1834extended source VLA 20cm Radio Molecular Cloud 13CO

  7. Gamma-Ray Emission Processes

  8. Active Galactic Nucleis M87

  9. Extragalactic sources PKS2005 PG1553 Spectral Indices of new sources range 3~4 New Sources

  10. Mrk421 (z=0.031)AGN (Blazar)

  11. Mrk501 Giant flare 2005 July 01, IAU Circular #8562 2min resolution Light curve

  12. 1ES1218+304(z=0.182) Soft Energy Spectrum Preliminary

  13. PG 1553(z>0.25) Very Soft energy spectrum the attenuationby pair creation or nature of SSC mechanism

  14. GRB observation by MAGIC Uniformity GLAST Pulse Duration “long” MAGIC “short” ~10sec GRB trigger Satellite to MAGIC ~20sec MAGIC slewing time

  15. MAGIC made an observation in the period of the main prompt emission!! But we knew later z = 6.3.

  16. MAGIC one and a half year results • Source observations • Galactic 4sources are observed • Extragalactic 6sources are observed • Distant sources show soft energy spectra • The attenuation by e+- creation • The nature of SSC mechanism • The number of sources is increasing • GRBs • 9 fast follow-up observations are carried out • 2 are in prompt phase among 9
