Revisiting EBL Constraints from Gamma-Ray Observations: A Critical Assessment and Methodological Improvements

The extragalactic background light (EBL), ranging from the infrared to the ultraviolet bands, is the second most intense photon field in the universe, surpassed only by the cosmic microwave background (CMB). It is primarily generated by starlight in galaxies, either directly or through absorption by dust and re-emission at longer wavelengths. Very high energy (VHE, $E$ > $100\,$GeV) photons can be absorbed via $\gamma \gamma$ interactions with the EBL during their propagation across cosmological distances, providing an indirect method to probe the EBL by studying its impact on the energy spectra of distant VHE sources. This paper examines the robustness of EBL constraints derived from gamma-ray data, critically assessing the assumptions made in previous studies about the intrinsic source spectra, the uncertainties of the observations and the validity of the analysis tools. We find that earlier studies likely underestimated the uncertainties in the EBL intensity constraints, underscoring the need to account for systematic uncertainties comprehensively. By employing a Monte Carlo (MC) simulation and a plausible model for unknown systematic errors, we compute more realistic uncertainties. Additionally, we discuss possible alternatives to set EBL constraints, relaxing the assumptions on the intrinsic spectra of gamma-ray sources, with the goal of achieving more robust constraints.

Constraints on the VHE counterpart of two binary black hole mergers observed by the MAGIC and CTAO LST-1 telescopes

We present very-high-energy gamma-ray observations of two binary black hole merger candidates, GW240615_113620 and GW241125_010116, performed with the Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) telescopes and the first Large-Sized Telescope of the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory's (CTAO LST-1). GW240615_113620 was the best localized event of the fourth observing run of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA gravitational waves interferometers. GW241125_010116 was temporally and spatially coincident with a sub-threshold short-duration burst detected with the Swift-Burst Alert Telescope (BAT), the Swift-X-Ray Telescope (XRT) and the Einstein Probe Follow-up X-ray Telescope (FXT). We observed the two events in stereoscopic mode, taking advantage of the improved sensitivity of joint MAGIC+LST-1 observations. No detection was achieved in the GeV-TeV gamma-ray band for any of the two sources. The unfavourable observing conditions of both events posed a challenge for a standard analysis and therefore a non standard analysis was necessary for both objects. Owing to the small localization area and the association with a GRB-like burst respectively, these events represented an unprecedented opportunity to study in details the electromagnetic emission from binary black holes merger events and, in particular, we discussed two theoretical models that predict a detectable gamma-ray emission and the possible future applications.

First double-differential measurement of pionless charged-current muon neutrino interactions using kinematic imbalance observables on carbon and oxygen with the T2K experiment

We report the first measurement of muon-neutrino charged-current cross section as a function of kinematic imbalance (KI) observables on oxygen with no pions and at least one proton in the final state, using the T2K ND280 detector. The cross section is extracted simultaneously for carbon and oxygen targets and double-differentially as a function of several KI observables, providing new insight into the modeling of nuclear effects. This joint measurement offers direct sensitivity to the correlations between two targets, a key ingredient for reducing systematic uncertainties in neutrino oscillation experiments that employ multiple target nuclei, such as T2K and Hyper-Kamiokande. Comparisons with predictions from widely used neutrino event generators show that none of the models fully describe the data across all regions of measured phase space. These results highlight possible directions where improvements in neutrino-nucleus interaction modeling are needed for current and future neutrino oscillation experiments.

Signal selection and model-independent extraction of pionless charged-current muon neutrino cross section using double-differential kinematic imbalance observables on carbon and oxygen with the T2K experiment

We present the first joint measurement of muon neutrino CC$0\pi Np$ interactions on carbon and oxygen targets, in two double-differential kinematic imbalance (KI) observable spaces, $\delta p_{T}$-$\delta \alpha_{T}$ and $p_{N}$-$\cos\theta_{\mu}$. The measurement employs the ND280 detector of the T2K experiment and includes a detailed description of the event selection used to define signal and control regions, the evaluation of systematic uncertainties, and the signal extraction procedure, together with validation studies supporting a robust cross-section measurement. The results of this analysis indicate that current neutrino-nucleus interaction models do not adequately describe the data, and demonstrate the strong discriminating power of KI observables. This measurement highlights the need for improved theoretical nuclear modeling within neutrino interaction generators to achieve increased precision in neutrino oscillation measurements.

Constraining Neutrino Interaction Uncertainties for Neutrino Oscillation Measurements at the T2K Experiment

In the context of neutrino oscillation measurements from the T2K experiment, the off-axis near detector ND280 plays a crucial role in constraining the incoming neutrino flux and neutrino-nucleus interaction cross sections. The result is a robust control over systematic uncertainties in the fit of neutrino oscillation parameters to the data at the T2K far detector, Super-Kamiokande. This paper details the methodology and results of these constraints in the context of the latest neutrino oscillation analysis from T2K. It describes how a new neutrino cross-section model and refined flux prediction are parameterized and fit to data in new ND280 event selections. Additionally, this work reports the results of extensive robustness studies, including fits with alternative interaction models, consistency checks against publicly available cross-section measurements, and \textit{p}-value evaluations, to demonstrate the reliability and robustness of our methodology. Finally, we present a sensitivity study demonstrating that the upgraded ND280, with improved acceptance and a lower hadron threshold, may enhance future constraints and further reduce systematic uncertainties in oscillation measurements.

Detection of the distant quasar OP 313 with the first Large-Sized Telescope of CTAO

In December 2023, the Large-Sized Telescope prototype (LST-1) detected for the first time VHE $\gamma$-ray emission from the FSRQ OP~313 becoming the furthest blazar ever observed at VHE with z=0.997. We aim to characterize the $\gamma$-ray emission of OP 313 during this flare, comparing it with its average emission state in order to understand the processes leading to this detection. Its remarkable distance also enables studies on the Extragalactic Background Light (EBL), with the goal of evaluating the attenuation of VHE $\gamma$-ray photons. We characterize the $\gamma$-ray emission during the flare in December 2023 and the low emission state observed in January 2024 thanks to the LST-1 and MAGIC data and quasi-simultaneous \textit{Fermi}-LAT observations. This dataset also enables us to evaluate the EBL attenuation by systematically exploring the EBL intensity over the $\gamma$-ray spectrum. Finally, we study the multi-wavelength emission and interpret the broadband spectral energy distribution (SED) within blazar radiative models including the thermal contributions from the accretion disc, dusty torus and broad line region. We also characterize the flare brightness in the high-energy (HE, $E>100$~MeV) $\gamma$-ray band, that was found to be a factor 50 above the average emission seen by \textit{Fermi}-LAT. The HE and VHE observations allow us to set constrains to the EBL density. Finally, thanks to the extensive multi-wavelength campaign organized, we are able to construct and model the broadband SED of OP~313 within the framework of a two-zone leptonic model where the $\gamma$-ray emission is produced via inverse-Compton scattering of the broad line region, accretion disk and dusty torus photon fields. However the dominant external photon field remains unknown, as several combinations are able to successfully explain the $\gamma$-ray emission observed.

Photolithography-Only Fabrication of Transmons Using Double-Oblique Evaporation

We investigate a photolithography-only fabrication process for transmon Josephson junctions using a modified double-oblique evaporation geometry. Using a bilayer resist process and Al shadow evaporation, we fabricate junction structures and confirm by optical and scanning electron microscopy that the resulting narrowed crossing region reaches a geometrical area on the order of $10^4~\mathrm{nm}^2$, which lies in the size range relevant to qubit junction fabrication. Room-temperature resistance screening shows that the junction resistance falls within the target range for the present transmon design over a usable process window and exhibits a clear design dependence. We further implement fabricated junctions in transmon devices and evaluate them in a three-dimensional Al cavity at $20 \, \mathrm{mK}$, where we observe basic transmon qubit operation with $f_{01}$=4.865 GHz, $T_1 \sim 9 \, \mu \mathrm{s}$, and $T_2^* \sim 0.4 \, \mu \mathrm{s}$. These results demonstrate the feasibility of realizing functional transmon devices in a photolithography-only process using double-oblique evaporation.

Long-term study of the gamma-ray emission of Cygnus X-3 with MAGIC and Fermi-LAT

Cygnus X-3 is a microquasar composed of a compact object of unknown nature closely orbiting around a Wolf-Rayet star. The particularities of this source make it a unique case among microquasars. This fact, together with its recent establishment as a PeV particle accelerator, makes Cygnus X-3 a very interesting target for the investigation of the physical processes leading to gamma-ray production. In this work, the TeV and GeV gamma-ray emission of Cygnus X-3 is studied in order to determine its origin and constrain the properties of the system. For that purpose, a point-like analysis of 130 h of data taken with the MAGIC telescopes between 2013 and 2024 was performed, which represents the largest available sample for Cygnus X-3 at $\sim$TeV energies. Additionally, contemporary data from Fermi-LAT were also analysed to better contextualize the MAGIC observations. For a more detailed investigation of the source physics, the data were divided into three subsets according to the flaring state of the source and orbital phase. No significant detection of Cygnus X-3 is found between 0.1 and 7 TeV for any of the datasets, and differential and integral flux upper limits are reported over the long-term monitoring of the source. The Fermi-LAT fluxes can be considered compatible with previous results, taking into account the different data samples used across studies. The MAGIC upper limits presented in this work represent the most constraining ones up to date at $\sim$TeV energies. An eventual detection of Cygnus X-3 at these energies would significantly constrain the source properties, and is not unreasonable to expect given that the source has already been detected in both the GeV and PeV regimes during flaring states. Further observations of Cygnus X-3 at energies above tens of GeV would be valuable for this purpose.

The January 2010 flare of Mrk421: Insights from a stochastic acceleration model

Mrk421 displayed its highest flux state ever observed in February of 2010 with very high TeV fluxes and interesting cross-band correlations and a spectral energy distribution (SED) evolution not entirely consistent with the standard single zone leptonic synchrotron self-Compton model. The source was already in a high state in January 2010 and displayed strong variability in the days preceding the highest state. We study the temporal evolution of the spectra in January to extract information about the particle dynamics and the physical properties of the emission region. We build up on the temporal variability and correlations studied in the previous work (MAGIC collaboration - Abe et al. 2025) and attempt to improve the SED model fits with a physics oriented approach. The multi-wavelength data was processed and the SEDs were fit using JetSeT. The SED evolution and cross band correlations were modelled using leptonic log-parabola with a low energy power-law branch (LPPL) and pile-up distributions that are predicted in a stochastic acceleration scenario. A simplified temporal evolution model was developed and fit to the SEDs and the resulting trends and phenomenology were characterised in context of theoretical literature. An expanding emission region model was also tested. We find the spectral variability to be well in agreement with stochastic acceleration. Our analysis suggests that the standard LPPL distribution develops a Maxwellian pile-up component at the transition from acceleration to cooling dominated phase on 3 nights in the dataset, as also hinted by the very-high energy and X-ray light curves. The resulting phenomenology of our sequential snapshot evolution SED model agrees well with theoretical and numerical simulation studies on temporal evolution using the diffusion equation approach.

Search for proton decay via $p \to e^{+}\pi^{0}\pi^{0}$ and $p \to \mu^{+}\pi^{0}\pi^{0}$ in 0.401 megaton-years exposure of Super-Kamiokande I-V

We searched for proton decay via $p \to e^{+}\pi^{0}\pi^{0}$ and $p \to \mu^{+}\pi^{0}\pi^{0}$ in 0.401 megaton-years of data collected in all pure water detector phases of Super-Kamiokande (SK) I-V. A theoretical study predicts proton decay rates without assuming a particular grand unified theory and suggests that three-body proton decays involving two pions can have decay rates comparable to those of $p \to e^{+}\pi^{0}$ and $p \to \mu^{+}\pi^{0}$. This is the first search for proton decay into a charged anti-lepton and two neutral pions in SK. One data candidate event was found for each of the two decay modes, which is consistent with the expected atmospheric neutrino background. We set lower limits on the lifetime of $\tau/B(p \to e^{+}\pi^{0}\pi^{0}) > 7.2 \times 10^{33}$ years and $\tau/B(p \to \mu^{+}\pi^{0}\pi^{0}) > 4.5 \times 10^{33}$ years at 90 $\%$ confidence level. These limits are more than one order of magnitude higher than those of the previous experiment.

Chasing Gamma-Ray Signals from Binary Neutron Star Coalescences with the Cherenkov Telescope Array: Prospects and Observing Strategies

The detection of gravitational waves (GWs) from a binary neutron star (BNS) merger by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo (GW170817), together with its electromagnetic counterpart, the short gamma-ray burst GRB~170817A, heralded the birth of multi-messenger astronomy. The detection of TeV emission from GRBs motivates follow-up observations with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO), ideal for detecting such signals due to its unprecedented sensitivity, rapid response, and wide-field survey capabilities. The aim of this work is to evaluate GeV--TeV GW follow-up strategies for CTAO using a multi-step simulation pipeline and to estimate the expected rate of joint GW-GRB detections during observing run O5. Using a simulated sample of BNS systems with corresponding GW detections, gamma-ray emission is simulated through phenomenological prescriptions based on the observed population of short GRBs, including off-axis jet scenarios. CTAO observations are simulated to account for instrument response, sky tiling strategies, integration times, and varying observing conditions. Strategies with variable and constant integration times are investigated. We find that, via an optimized follow-up strategy, about 5% of simulated GW-associated short GRBs produce GeV--TeV radiation detectable by CTAO. Detectability is strongly influenced by the jet opening angle and viewing angle, suggesting that even rough estimates of the viewing angle in GW alerts could enhance targeting. This framework motivates future follow-ups of GW-detectable events, including neutron star-black hole mergers, and further supports the development of advanced strategies incorporating galaxy distributions and synergies with future detectors such as the Einstein Telescope.

Extreme Blazars Observed with MAGIC: Second Catalog Release

Extremely high-peaked BL Lac objects - also named extreme blazars - are among the most energetic and persistent extragalactic accelerators in the Universe, defined by a synchrotron emission peaking above $10^{17}$ Hz in X-rays. Such emission is then reprocessed and produces radiation extending deeply into very-high-energy (VHE, energy E>100 GeV) gamma rays. Observations in this energy band - optimally investigated by the Imaging Air-Shower Cherenkov telescopes - are crucial for probing the physical processes that drive their extreme behavior. This study extends our investigation of extreme blazars in the VHE gamma-ray range, providing a second new mini-catalog of sources observed by the MAGIC telescopes. We report on the monitoring of seven targets between 2017 and 2025, including four newly observed sources and three that have been part of long-term observation campaigns, for a total of approximately 338 hours of observations. The analysis of MAGIC data reveals two new VHE detections of extreme blazars, along with three additional sources showing hints of VHE emission. Joint observations of MAGIC and the first Large-Sized Telescope (LST-1) also confirmed a new VHE extreme blazar. Our results are complemented by simultaneous multiwavelength observations in other energy bands, including optical-UV, X-rays, and high-energy gamma rays (100 MeV<E<100 GeV). We confirm typical behavior of extreme blazars, such as a modest variability and a ``harder-when-brighter'' trend in X-rays across the sample. This new set increases the population of extreme blazars and their broadband analysis confirms the physical properties of these extreme sources.

MAGIC observations of NGC 4278. The first low-luminosity radio galaxy with compact jets detected at TeV energies

The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) Collaboration has recently reported the first detection at TeV energies of a low-luminosity radio galaxy, NGC 4278. The aim of this work is to investigate the high-energy properties of NGC 4278 during the flaring and subsequent quasi-quiescent states with the Florian Goebel Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) telescopes. NGC 4278 is located in the field of view of two blazars, 1ES 1215+303 and 1ES 1218+304, previously observed by the MAGIC telescopes. Therefore, we re-analyzed MAGIC observations made between 2010 and 2024 on these sources. We also modeled the broadband spectral energy distribution of the source during and after the flaring state at TeV energies. We did not detect any statistically significant $\gamma$-ray emission from NGC 4278 with MAGIC. The corresponding upper limits obtained using the entire MAGIC dataset ($F_{{\rm UL, }\, >150\, \mathrm{GeV}}=1.5 \times 10^{-12}\, \mathrm{ph \, s^{-1}\, cm^{-2}}$) are consistent with the LHAASO results. The best-fit models obtained for both emission states suggest that the emitting region is strongly particle-dominated, and an efficient acceleration mechanism has to be in action in order to reach TeV energies. The transition between the flaring and quasi-quiescent state cannot be explained by a simple radiative cooling of the emitting particles. The inferred jet power, of the order of $L_{\rm jet}\sim 10^{42}\, \mathrm{erg\,s^{-1}}$, is dominated by the kinetic component in both states and it is in a good agreement with previous, time-averaged observational estimates, supporting the idea that such high-energy flares might be recurrent. The jet, however, remains too weak to break the host-galaxy confinement.

VHE gamma-ray intranight variability from BL Lacertae during the extreme flaring state of 2022

BL Lacertae (BL Lac), the archetypal blazar of its subclass and one of the most studied blazars in the last decades, has undergone a series of major multi-wavelength outbursts since 2020, resulting in its highest recorded $\gamma$-ray flare to date between September and November 2022 together with those from August 2021 and October 2024. We characterised the $\gamma$-ray and multi-wavelength emission and spectral energy distribution (SED) of BL Lac, as well as their evolution during the major and extended $\gamma$-ray and multi-wavelength flare that occurred between September and November 2022. We evaluated the variability of the flare, focusing on the nights of October 20 and November 13, when clear intranight very-high-energy (VHE, $E>100$ GeV) $\gamma$-ray variability was observed. We modelled the $\gamma$-ray and broadband SEDs during periods of stable emission identified with a Bayesian block analysis and interpreted the flare's evolution in terms of the variability in the relativistic particles and the jet's physical parameters. The VHE emission shows an average flux of 0.23 Crab Units (C.U.) above 200 GeV and a variability amplitude of more than a factor ten. We observe intranight flux-doubling variations as fast as $\sim$8 minutes during the nights of October 20 and November 13, 2022 with maximum fluxes of 4.4 C.U. above 100 GeV and 2.8 C.U. above 200 GeV. The spectral analysis reveals a transition of the X-ray emission from the high- to the low-energy SED peak and a shift of the $\gamma$-ray peak towards higher energies. We interpret the broadband emission within a leptonic two-zone model in which intranight variability is explained as magnetic reconnection in a compact region closely oriented with the line of sight while variations in the relativistic electron distributions and the injection of freshly accelerated particles explain the weekly scale variations.

The Super Fine-Grained Detector for the T2K neutrino oscillation experiment

The magnetised near detector ND280 of the long-baseline neutrino experiment T2K has been upgraded to improve its detection performance and, consequently, enhance our understanding of neutrino-nucleus interactions, reducing the systematic uncertainties in measurements of the neutrino oscillation parameters. A key component of the upgrade is a novel segmented plastic scintillator detector, called the Super Fine-Grained Detector (SuperFGD), made of approximately 2 million optically isolated 1 cm$^3$ cubes read out by three orthogonal wavelength-shifting (WLS) fibres. Scintillation photons are detected by 55,888 Hamamatsu Multi-Pixel Photon Counters (MPPCs). The SuperFGD provides 3D images of neutrino interactions by tracking the final-state charged particles produced isotropically, including protons down to a threshold of around 330 MeV/$c$. The high light yield of SuperFGD greatly improves particle identification and the sub-nanosecond time resolution provides an excellent identification of Michel electrons. The SuperFGD is also able to detect neutrons from neutrino interactions and, for the first time in a neutrino experiment, to reconstruct their kinetic energy using a fine detector segmentation and by measuring the time-of-flight with sub-nanosecond precision. In this article the details of the detector design, construction and performance are described. The detector was installed in ND280 and successfully commissioned with cosmic data in 2023 and, later, with the T2K neutrino beam. The detector response has been characterised with the 2023 and 2024 data and the results are reported in this article.

First detection of VHE gamma-ray signal from the FSRQ TON 0599

TON\,0599 (z=0.7247) belongs to the few flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) detected in the very high energy (VHE, $E > 100$\,GeV) gamma-ray band. Its redshift makes it currently one of the farthest VHE gamma-ray sources. It was detected for the first time with the MAGIC telescopes on 2017 December 15, and observed until December 29. The flux reached a maximum of about 50 per cent of the Crab Nebula flux above 80 GeV on the second night of observation, after which we witnessed a gradual decrease of the flux. The VHE gamma-ray spectrum connects smoothly to the one in the high energy ($E > 100$\,MeV) band obtained from simultaneous observations with {\textit Fermi}-LAT. It features a cut-off at energies around 50\,GeV, indicating the location of the gamma-ray emission zone beyond the broad line region. In addition, we were able to follow the spectral evolution during the fading phase of the flare. Multiwavelength analysis based on observations in optical, near-infrared, and radio bands acquired by the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) Collaboration from November to March, as well as observations in X-ray and optical--UV bands with instruments on board the \textit{Swift} satellite, shows strong correlation between different bands. We model the broadband emission with a simple one-zone leptonic model, where the high-energy peak is predominantly produced by external Compton (EC) scattering of photons from the dusty torus.

CTAO LST-1 observations of magnetar SGR 1935+2154: Deep limits on sub-second bursts and persistent tera-electronvolt emission

The Galactic magnetar SGR 1935+2154 has exhibited prolific high-energy (HE) bursting activity in recent years. Investigating its potential tera-electronvolt counterpart could provide insights into the underlying mechanisms of magnetar emission and very high-energy (VHE) processes in extreme astrophysical environments. We aim to search for a possible tera-electronvolt counterpart to both its persistent and sub-second-scale burst emission. We analysed over 25 h of observations from the Large-Sized Telescope prototype (LST-1) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) during periods of HE activity from SGR 1935+2154 in 2021 and 2022 to search for persistent emission. For bursting emission, we selected and analysed nine 0.1 s time windows centred around known short X-ray bursts, targeting potential sub-second-scale tera-electronvolt counterparts in a low-photon-statistics regime. While no persistent or bursting emission was detected in our search, we establish upper limits for the tera-electronvolt emission of a short magnetar burst simultaneous to its soft gamma-ray flux. Specifically, for the brightest burst in our sample, the ratio between tera-electronvolt and X-ray flux is less than $10^{-3}$. The non-detection of either persistent or bursting tera-electronvolt emission from SGR 1935+2154 suggests that if such components exist, they may occur under specific conditions not covered by our observations. This aligns with theoretical predictions of VHE components in magnetar-powered fast radio bursts and the detection of MeV - GeV emission in giant magnetar flares. These findings underscore the potential of magnetars, fast radio bursts, and other fast transients as promising candidates for future observations in the low-photon-statistics regime with Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes, particularly with the CTAO.

First Associated Neutrino Search for a Failed Supernova Candidate with Super-Kamiokande

In 2024, a failed supernova candidate, M31-2014-DS1, was reported in the Andromeda galaxy (M31), located at a distance of approximately 770 kpc. In this paper, we search for neutrinos from this failed supernova using data from Super-Kamiokande (SK). Based on the estimated time of black hole formation inferred from optical and infrared observations, we define a search window for neutrino events in the SK data. Using this window, we develop a dedicated analysis method for failed supernovae and apply it to M31-2014-DS1, by conducting a cluster search using the timing and energy information of candidate events. No significant neutrino excess is observed within the search region. Consequently, we place an upper limit on the electron antineutrino luminosity from M31-2014-DS1 and discuss its implications for various failed SN models and their neutrino emission characteristics. Despite the 18 MeV threshold adopted to suppress backgrounds, the search remains sufficiently sensitive to constrain the Shen-TM1 EOS, yielding a 90% confidence level upper limit of 1.76 \times 10^{53} erg on the electron antineutrino luminosity, slightly above the expected value of 1.35 \times 10^{53} erg.
