Search for very high energy gamma-rays from the z = 0.896 quasar 4C +55.17 with the MAGIC telescopes

The bright gamma-ray quasar 4C+55.17 is a distant source (z=0.896) with a hard spectrum atGeV energies as observed by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the Fermi satellite. Thissource is identified as a good source candidate for very high energy (VHE; >30 GeV) gammarays.In general, VHE...
