TeV gamma-ray observations of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 with H.E.S.S

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, H. Abdalla +250

We search for high-energy gamma-ray emission from the binary neutron star merger GW170817 with the H.E.S.S. Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes. The observations presented here have b…

Control Software for the SST-1M Small-Size Telescope prototype for the Cherenkov Telescope Array

V. Sliusar, R. Walter, C. Alispach +40

The SST-1M is a 4-m Davies--Cotton atmospheric Cherenkov telescope optimized to provide gamma-ray sensitivity above a few TeV. The SST-1M is proposed as part of the Small-Size Tele…

Development of a strategy for calibrating the novel SiPM camera of the SST-1M telescope proposed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array

I. Al Samarai, C. Alispach, F. Cadoux +36

CTA will comprise a sub-array of up to 70 small size telescopes (SSTs) at the southern array. The SST-1M project, a 4 m-diameter Davies Cotton telescope with 9 degrees FoV and a 12…

Plasma effects on relativistic pair beams from TeV blazars: PIC simulations and analytical predictions

Iman Rafighi, Sergei Vafin, Jacek Niemiec +1

Pair beams produced by very high-energy radiation from TeV blazars emit gamma rays in the GeV band by inverse-Compton scattering of soft photons. The observed GeV-band signal is sm…
