The Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) telescopes are two 17 m diameter Cherenkov telescopes located on the Canarian island La Palma (Spain). MAGIC is nowadays the only ground-based instrument able to detect high-energy gamma-rays below 100 GeV. Its physics program spans from astrophysics to fundamental physics. In this talk I will focus on the latest MAGIC results related to distant AGN observations and on implications related to Extragalactic Background Light and possible new physics.

Abstract

The Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) telescopes are two 17 m diameter Cherenkov telescopes located on the Canarian island La Palma (Spain). MAGIC is nowadays the only ground-based instrument able to detect high-energy gamma-rays below 100 GeV. Its physics program spans from astrophysics to fundamental physics. In this talk I will focus on the latest MAGIC results related to distant AGN observations and on implications related to Extragalactic Background Light and possible new physics.
