Calibration and performance of the readout system based on switched capacitor arrays for the Large-Sized Telescope of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Seiya Nozaki, Kyosuke Awai, Aya Bamba +59
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next-generation ground-based very-high-energy gamma-ray observatory. The Large-Sized Telescope (LST) of CTA is designed to detect gamma r…
Raman LIDARs for the atmospheric calibration along the line-of-sight of CTA
Otger Ballester, Oscar Blanch, Joan Boix +20
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next generation ground based observatory for gamma ray astronomy at very high energies. Employing more than 100 Imaging Atmospheric Chere…
Light-Trap: A SiPM Upgrade for Very High Energy Astronomy and Beyond
D. Guberman, J. Cortina, J. E. Ward +11
With the development of the Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Technique (IACT), Gamma-ray astronomy has become one of the most interesting and productive fields of astrophysics. Curren…
The IFAE/UAB and LUPM Raman LIDARs for Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
A. López-Oramas, O. Abril, O. Blanch Bigas +8
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next generation of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes. It will reach a sensitivity and an energy resolution with no precendent in v…
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Large Size Telescope
G. Ambrosi, Y. Awane, H. Baba +129
The two arrays of the Very High Energy gamma-ray observatory Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will include four Large Size Telescopes (LSTs) each with a 23 m diameter dish and 28 m…
Development of the Photomultiplier-Tube Readout System for the CTA Large Size Telescope
H. Kubo, R. Paoletti, Y. Awane +51
We have developed a prototype of the photomultiplier tube (PMT) readout system for the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) Large Size Telescope (LST). Two thousand PMTs along with thei…
An Analog Trigger System for Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes
M. Barcelo, J. A. Barrio, O. Blanch Bigas +6
Arrays of Cherenkov telescopes typically use multi-level trigger schemes to keep the rate of random triggers from the night sky background low. At a first stage, individual telesco…
Design Concepts for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
The CTA Consortium
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has had a major breakthrough with the impressive results obtained using systems of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Ground-based gamma-ray…
