Measurement of cosmic-ray low-energy antiproton spectrum with the first BESS-Polar Antarctic flight
K. Abe, H. Fuke, S. Haino +27
The BESS-Polar spectrometer had its first successful balloon flight over Antarctica in December 2004. During the 8.5-day long-duration flight, almost 0.9 billion events were record…
Observation of an extended VHE gamma-ray emission from MSH 15-52 with CANGAROO-III
T. Nakamori, H. kubo, T. Yoshida +2
We have observed the supernova remnant MSH 15-52 (G320.4-1.2), which contains the gamma-ray pulsar PSR B1509-58, using the CANGAROO-III imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope arra…
Measurements of 0.2 to 20 GeV/n cosmic-ray proton and helium spectra from 1997 through 2002 with the BESS spectrometer
Y. Shikaze, S. Haino, K. Abe +21
We measured low energy cosmic-ray proton and helium spectra in the kinetic energy range 0.215 - 21.5 GeV/n at different solar activities during a period from 1997 to 2002. The obse…
Measurements of Atmospheric Antiprotons
K. Yamato, K. Abe, H. Fuke +21
We measured atmospheric antiproton spectra in the energy range 0.2 to 3.4 GeV, at sea level and at balloon altitude in the atmospheric depth range 4.5 to 26 g/cm^2. The observed en…
Search for Cosmic-Ray Antideuterons
H. Fuke, T. Maeno, K. Abe +23
We performed a search for cosmic-ray antideuterons using data collected during four BESS balloon flights from 1997 to 2000. No candidate was found. We derived, for the first time,…
Measurements of Primary and Atmospheric Cosmic-Ray Spectra with the BESS-TeV Spectrometer
S. Haino, T. Sanuki, K. Abe +30
Primary and atmospheric cosmic-ray spectra were precisely measured with the BESS-TeV spectrometer. The spectrometer was upgraded from BESS-98 to achieve seven times higher resoluti…
Measurement of Cosmic-Ray Proton, Antiproton and Muon Spectra at Mountain Altitude
T. Sanuki, M. Fujikawa, K. Abe +22
Measurement of cosmic-ray proton, antiproton and muon spectra was carried out at mountain altitude. We observed 2 x 10^5 protons and 10^2 antiprotons in a kinetic energy region of…
Precise Measurements of Atmospheric Muon Fluxes with the BESS Spectrometer
M. Motoki, T. Sanuki, S. Orito +36
The vertical absolute fluxes of atmospheric muons and muon charge ratio have been measured precisely at different geomagnetic locations by using the BESS spectrometer. The observat…
Construction of New 7m Imaging Air Čerenkov Telescope of CANGAROO
T. Tanimori, S. A. Dazeley, P. G. Edwards +28
CANGAROO group has constructed the new large imaging Air \v Cerenkov telescope to exploit hundred GeV region gamma-ray astronomy in March 1999 at Woomera, South Australia. It has a…
Search for TeV Gamma Rays from the SNR RXJ1713.7-3946
H. Muraishi, T. Tanimori, S. Yanagita +28
The shell type SNR RXJ1713.7-3946 is a new SNR discovered by the ROSAT all sky survey. Recently, strong non-thermal X-ray emission from the northwest part of the remnant was detect…
Data Acquisition System of the CANGAROO-II Telescope
M. Mori, S. A. Dazeley, P. G. Edwards +28
The data acquisition system for the new CANGAROO-II 7m telescope is described.
An Optical Reflector for the CANGAROO-II Telescope
Akiko Kawachi, J. Kushida, S. A. Dazeley +28
We have been successful in developing light and durable mirrors made of CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) laminates for the reflector of the new CANGAROO-II 7 m telescope. The…
TeV Gamma-ray Observations of Southern AGN with the CANGAROO 3.8m Telescople
M. D. Roberts, S. A. Dazeley, P. G. Edwards +28
Since 1992 the CANGAROO 3.8m imaging telescope has been used to search for sources of TeV gamma-rays. Results are presented here for observations of four Southern Hemisphere BL-Lac…
Very High Energy Gamma Rays from the Vela Pulsar/Nebula
