A Simple Method to Test for Energy-Dependent Dispersion in High Energy Light-Curves of Astrophysical Sources
Ulisses Barres de Almeida, Michael Daniel
In this paper we discuss a simple method of testing for the presence of energy-dependent dispersion in high energy data-sets. It uses the minimisation of the Kolmogorov distance be…
Science opportunities enabled by the era of Visible Band Stellar Imaging with sub-100 μarc-sec angular resolution
D. Kieda, Monica Acosta, Anastasia Barbano +8
This white paper briefly summarizes stellar science opportunities enabled by ultra-high resolution (sub-100 μ arc-sec) astronomical imaging in the visible (U/V) wavebands. Next ge…
Lorentz invariance violation with gamma rays
Michael Daniel
The assumption of Lorentz invariance is one of the founding principles of Modern Physics and violation of it would have profound implications to our understanding of the universe.…
A Simple Method To Test For Energy-Dependent Dispersion In High Energy Light Curves Of Astrophysical Sources
Michael Daniel, Ulisses Barres de Almeida
We present a method of testing for the presence of energy dependent dispersion in transient features of a light curve. It is based on minimising the Kolmogorov distance between two…
Bright radio emission from an ultraluminous stellar-mass microquasar in M31
Matthew J. Middleton, James C. A. Miller-Jones, Sera Markoff +34
A subset of ultraluminous X-ray sources (those with luminosities < 10^40 erg/s) are thought to be powered by the accretion of gas onto black holes with masses of ~5-20 M_solar, pro…
Flasher and muon-based calibration of the GCT telescopes proposed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Anthony M. Brown, Thomas Armstrong, Paula M. Chadwick +2
The GCT is a dual-mirror Small-Sized-Telescope prototype proposed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array. Calibration of the GCT's camera is primarily achieved with LED-based flasher un…
