Pachmarhi Array of Čerenkov Telescopes and its Sensitivity
V. R. Chitnis, B. S. Acharya, P. N. Bhat +9
Pachmarhi Array of Čerenkov Telescopes (PACT) has been designed to search for celestial TeV rays using the wavefront sampling technique. PACT, located at Pachmarhi, (latitude 2…
Gamma-Hadron Separation using Čerenkov Photon Density Fluctuations
P. N. Bhat, V. R. Chitnis
In atmospheric Čerenkov technique rays are detected against abundant background produced by hadronic showers. In order to improve signal to noise ratio of the experiment, it is…
Observations of Mkn 421 using Pachmarhi Array of Čerenkov Telescopes
P. N. Bhat, B. S. Acharya, V. R. Chitnis +4
Pachmarhi Array of Čerenkov Telescopes (PACT), based on wavefront sampling technique, has been used for detecting TeV gamma rays from galactic and extra-galactic -ray sources. T…
Broad band X-ray spectrum of Cygnus X-1
V. R. Chitnis, A. R. Rao, P. C. Agrawal
We present the hard X-ray (20-100 keV) observations of Cygnus X-1 obtained using a large area balloon-borne Xenon filled Multi-anode Proportional Counter (XMPC) telescope. The obse…
