| Research Abstract |
This research aims the upgrade of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope MAGIC and the search for the dark matter. The focal plane module using Hybrid Photon Detector(HPD) with high quantum efficiency photocathode has been developed, and the gamma-ray signal from the dark matter annihilation has been researched.
