Source Position:
From
MAGIC Collaboration (2014):
- R.A. (J2000): 02 05 31 +/- 09s(stat) +/- 11s(syst)
- Dec. (J2000): +64 51 00 +/- 01'(stat) +/- 01'(syst)
Spectral Information:
From
MAGIC Collaboration (2014):
- Spectral index: 2.4 +/- 0.2(stat) +/- 0.2(syst)
Flux:
From
MAGIC Collaboration (2014):
- The integral flux above 1TeV is 0.65% that of the Crab
- "According to our results 3C 58 is the least luminous VHE gamma-ray PWN
ever detected at VHE and the one with the lowest flux at VHE to date."
