Scientific paper

The MAGIC collaboration reports the detection of the blazar S50716+714 (redshift unknown) in very high energy gamma-rays, using the 17m diameter MAGIC Cherenkov telescope on La Palma (27.8 N, 17.8 W, 2200 m asl). The observations were performed from April 22 to 24, 2008 and were triggered by the KVA Telescope due to the high optical state of the object. The source is also in a high X-ray state as reported by Swift (Giommi et al., ATel #1495).
