Abstract content
MAGIC-II, a two 17m telescope system, will start operating at La Palma in the fall of 2007. Its main goal is to improve the sensitivity in the stereoscopic/coincident operational mode. At the same time it will lower the analysis threshold of the currently running single MAGIC telescope. Results from the Monte Carlo simulations of this system will be discussed. A comparison of the two telescope system with the performances of one single telescope will be shown in terms of sensitivity, angular resolution and energy resolution.
