Different theoretical models predict VHE gamma-ray emission to arise in tight binary star systems (high mass-loss and high wind speeds), which has not been confirmed experimentally so far. Here we present the first bounds on the VHE emission from two
isolated Wolf-Rayet star binaries, WR147 and WR146, obtained with the MAGIC telescope.
MAGIC is a single-dish Cherenkov telescope located on La Palma (Spain), hence with an optimal view on the Northern sky. Sensitive in the 30 GeV-30 TeV energy band, it is nowadays the only ground-based instrument being able to measure high-energy gamm
a-rays below 100 GeV. We review the most recent experimental results obtained using MAGIC.
