Overview of recent results of the MAGIC astroparticle and fundamental physics programme — •Moritz Hütten for the MAGIC collaboration — Max-Planck-Institut für Physik, Föhringer Ring 6, 80805 München

In this report, we present the latest results of searches for signs for new physics in extraterrestrial gamma rays and cosmic-ray studies with the MAGIC telescopes. MAGIC is a stereoscopic system of two imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes located on the Canary island of La Palma. Recent efforts of the group comprise hunting for indirect gamma-ray signals from WIMP dark matter in dwarf galaxies and the Perseus cluster of galaxies; probing the Lorentz invariance of gamma-ray signals from the Crab pulsar; and limits on the flux of Earth-skimming PeV τ neutrinos. We will conclude with an outlook on ongoing analyses and current efforts of the group.
