Multiwavelength Campaign of Observations of AE Aqr

We provide a summary of results, obtained from a multiwavelength (TeV gamma-ray, X-ray, UV, optical, and radio) campaign of observations of AE Aqr conducted in 2005 August 28-September 2, on the nature and correlation of the flux variations in the various wavebands, the white dwarf spin evolution, the properties of the X-ray emission region, and the very low upper limits on the TeV gamma-ray flux.

FADC Pulse Reconstruction Using a Digital Filter for the MAGIC Telescope

Presently, the MAGIC telescope uses a 300 MHz FADC system to sample the transmitted and shaped signals from the captured Cherenkov light of air showers. We describe a method of Digital Filtering of the FADC samples to extract the charge and the arrival time of the signal: Since the pulse shape is dominated by the electronic pulse shaper, a numerical fit can be applied to the FADC samples taking the noise autocorrelation into account. The achievable performance of the digital filter is presented and compared to other signal reconstruction algorithms.
