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…
Proving the outstanding capabilities of IACTs in high time resolution optical astronomy
T. Hassan, M. K. Daniel
Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) are very-large telescopes designed to detect the nanosecond-timescale flashes produced within extended air showers. Because IACTs a…
Astro2020 White Paper State of the Profession: Intensity Interferometry
David B. Kieda, Gisela Anton, Anastasia Barbano +14
Recent advances in telescope design, photodetector efficiency, and high-speed electronic data recording and synchronization have created the observational capability to achieve unp…
Characterisation and Testing of CHEC-M - a camera prototype for the Small-Sized Telescopes of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
J. Zorn, R. White, J. J. Watson +42
The Compact High Energy Camera (CHEC) is a camera design for the Small-Sized Telescopes (SSTs; 4 m diameter mirror) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). The SSTs are focused on…
Gamma-ray Observations Under Bright Moonlight with VERITAS
S. Archambault, A. Archer, W. Benbow +62
Imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs) are equipped with sensitive photomultiplier tube (PMT) cameras. Exposure to high levels of background illumination degrades the eff…
Data quality monitoring in the presence of aerosols and other adverse atmospheric conditions with H.E.S.S
J. Hahn, R. de los Reyes, K. Bernlöhr +8
Cherenkov telescope experiments, such as H.E.S.S., have been very successful in astronomical observations in the very-high-energy (VHE; E 100 GeV) regime. As an integral part o…
