Scientific paper

The binary system LS I +61 303 is one of four γ-ray binaries known. The system was studied intensively with the MAGIC telescope between September 2005 and December 2006. The total amount of 166 hours of data were taken during two observation campaigns of 6 and 4 month duration. We produced the most detailed light curve of the system in γ-rays with energy above 100 GeV. We found a clear variation of the flux level in different orbital phase bins and on timescales of about one day. The spectral energy distribution can be described well by a power law with spectral photon index of 2.6 ± 0.2. We found no significant change in the spectral index between different orbital phases or during the different observation campaigns.
