Abstract

MAGIC (Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov) is a system of two 17-m diameter Cherenkov telescopes operating at the Observatorio del Roque de Los Muchachos in La Palma (Canary Islands, Spain) since 2009. The telescopes detect very-high-energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) gamma rays ranging from few tens of GeV to few tens of TeV. In this contribution I will present a selection of the latest scientific results obtained by the MAGIC telescopes, regarding Gamma-Ray Bursts observations, multi-messenger and multi-wavelength astronomy, and the discovery of VHE gamma-ray emission from the first VHE nova, RS Ophiuchi.
