Design and Performance of the Prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope Camera
Colin B. Adams, Giovanni Ambrosi, Michelangelo Ambrosio +86
The prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope (pSCT) is a candidate for a medium-sized telescope in the Cherenkov Telescope Array. The pSCT is based on a novel dual mirror optics de…
Design and performance of the prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope camera
C. B. Adams, G. Ambrosi, M. Ambrosio +71
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next-generation ground-based observatory for very-high-energy gamma-ray astronomy. An innovative 9.7 m aperture, dual-mirror Schwarzschil…
Demonstration of stellar intensity interferometry with the four VERITAS telescopes
A. U. Abeysekara, W. Benbow, A. Brill +52
High angular resolution observations at optical wavelengths provide valuable insights in stellar astrophysics, directly measuring fundamental stellar parameters, and probing stella…
An image-based array trigger for Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope Arrays
Hugh Dickinson, Frank Krennrich, Amanda Weinstein +4
It is anticipated that forthcoming, next generation, atmospheric Cherenkov telescope arrays will include a number of medium-sized telescopes that are constructed using a dual-mirro…
A Search for Brief Optical Flashes Associated with the SETI Target KIC 8462852
A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +78
The F-type star KIC 8462852 has recently been identified as an exceptional target for SETI (search for extraterrestrial intelligence) observations. We describe an analysis methodol…
Simulations of a Distributed Intelligent Array Trigger for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Hugh Dickinson, Frank Krennrich, Amanda Weinstein
It is anticipated that the forthcoming Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will include a number of medium-sized telescopes that are constructed using a dual-mirror Schwarzschild-Coude…
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…
A Topological Trigger System for Imaging Atmospheric-Cherenkov Telescopes
M. Schroedter, J. Anderson, K. Byrum +8
A fast trigger system is being designed as a potential upgrade to VERITAS, or as the basis for a future array of imaging atmospheric-Cherenkov telescopes such as AGIS. The scientif…
