Abstract

MAGIC is a new generation Cerenkov telescope which aims to detect cosmic γ-rays at energies as low as 10 – 30 GeV, closing the gap between satellites and ground-based γ-ray telescopes. In this paper we summarize the technical innovations, physics goals, and the status of the MAGIC telescope.
