Actually, you CAN improve your Magic Rating if you're a Phys-Ad or a
Magician (or some combo thereof...:)). This is done through Initiation

See the Grimoire for more rules on initioan and Meta Magic.

Alpha and Beta were mentioned in the SSC (Street Samurai Catalog), and They
were rehashed and Delta Grade added in Cybertechnology.
