Extragalactic infrared background effect on blazar spectrum
Light curves.
MAGIC (top) and optical R-band data (bottom) obtained for 3C 279 from February to March 2006. The long-term baseline for the optical flux is at 3 mJy.

Spectrum of 3C 279 measured by MAGIC.
Spectrum of 3C 279 measured by MAGIC. The gray area includes the combined statistical (1σ) and systematic errors, and underlines the marginal significance of detections at high energy. The dotted line shows compatibility of the measured spectrum with a power law of photon index α = 4.1. The blue and red triangles are measurements corrected on the basis of the two models for EBL density.
