Description
MAGIC is a system of two imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (or IACTs). MAGIC-I started routine operation after commissioning in 2004. Construction of MAGIC-II was completed in early 2009, and the two telescopes have been in operation ever since, with a break in 2012 for an upgrade that achieved full homogeneity. The project is funded primarily by the funding agencies BMFB (Germany), MPG (Germany), INFN (Italy), MICINN(Spain), and the ETH Zurich (Switzerland).
