    The Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) telescope is a last-generation instrument for very high energy gamma-ray observations. It is located at La Palma (Spain) hence with an optimal view on the Northern sky. Sensitive in the 30 GeV - 30 TeV band (thanks mainly to its large, 17 m diameter reflector), it is nowadays the only ground-based instrument being able to measure...

    The VERITAS collaboration operates an array of four imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes in southern Arizona. The first season of observations (including all four telescopes) was performed in 2007/2008. Two new gamma-ray sources were discovered and a variety of other TeV sources were observed and detected, in many cases within coordinated multi-wavelength campaigns. The status,...
