Consistent long-term analysis of VHE blazars using autoMAGIC — •Cyrus Walther and Felix Wersig — TU Dortmund University

Through the Cherenkov light emitted by particles originating from primary gamma rays interacting with the atmosphere, Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) such as MAGIC observe TeV-emitting astrophysical sources since 2003. After 20 years, this allows now for long-term analyses. While the development of consistent multi-year analysis requires a significant time commitment and is prone to bias if performed manually period by period, a database-driven software could fix those issues. An automatic analysis dubbed autoMAGIC has been developed to automatize the analysis of data from the MAGIC telescopes. In this approach, we aim to utilize autoMAGIC to perform long-term analyses of gamma-ray emitting blazars and aim to develop long-term light curves for selected blazars
