In 2005, the MAGIC telescope observed an unprecedented rapid flare from the AGN Mrk 501. A fast and strong variability was found in several adjacent energy bands above 100 GeV and was used to search for correlated flux variations at different energies. The resulting constraints on different possible Quantum Gravity effects have been investigated and will be presented.

Cherenkov emissions of magnetic charges moving through matter will exceed those of electric charges by several orders of magnitude. The AMANDA neutrino telescope is therefore capable of efficiently detecting relativistic magnetic monopoles that pass through its sensitive volume. We present a new limit on the flux of relativistic magnetic monopoles based on the analysis of one year of data tak ... More

The Short GAmma Ray Front Air Cherenkov Experiment is designed to search for bursts of gamma rays above 200 MeV lasting from 60 nanoseconds to longer than 20 microseconds. The custom-designed trigger and data-acquisition system of SGARFACE piggy-backs on the existing Whipple 10m telescope. The experiment has operated for more than 3 years during which time about 1.2 million events were recorde ... More

CUORICINO is a cryogenic detector running in Gran Sasso National Laboratories, Italy since 2003. With its 40.7 kg of 130TeO2 mass, in the form of an array of 62 crystals it has proved the feasibility of CUORE experiment, whose aim is to be sensitive to value of the effective neutrino mass as low as few tens of meV. It has moreover set the currently lower limit on the lifetime of 130Te for n ... More

Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) consists of three detectors, located in Hanford, Washington and Livingston, Louisiana, which are designed to search for gravitational waves from astrophysical sources. In November 2005, LIGO started col ... More

Supermassive particles like magnetic monopoles, Q-balls and nuclearites may emit light at subrelativistic speeds through different suggested mechanisms. One of them is nucleon decay catalysis by magnetic monopoles, where the decay products would emit Cherenkov radiation along a monopole track. The emitted secondary light from subrelativistic particles could make them visible to the AMAND ... More

The search for rare massive particles in the cosmic radiation remains one of the main aim of non-accelerator particle astrophysics. Experiments at high altitude allow lower mass thresholds with respect to detectors at sea level or underground. We present here the analysis of the full SLIM detector (400 m^2) after 4y exposure at the Chacaltaya site (5300m a.s.l.). A part is devoted to the stu ... More
