tilepy: rapid tiling strategies in mid/small FoV observatories
Fabian Schüssler, Halim Ashkar, Mathieu de Bony de Lavergne +1
The challenges inherent to time-domain multi-messenger astronomy require strategic actions so that adapted, optimized follow-up observations are performed efficiently. In particula…
Science verification of the new FlashCam-based camera in the 28m telescope of H.E.S.S
Gerd Pühlhofer, Konrad Bernlöhr, Baiyang Bi +13
In October 2019 the central 28m telescope of the H.E.S.S. experiment has been upgraded with a new camera. The camera is based on the FlashCam design which has been developed in vie…
The upgraded Data Acquisition System of the H.E.S.S. telescope array
Sylvia J. Zhu, Tim Lukas Holch, Thomas Murach +6
The High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) is an array of five Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes located in the Khomas Highland of Namibia. H.E.S.S. observes gamma rays…
Performance of the upgraded H.E.S.S. cameras
S. Bonnefoy, T. Ashton, M. Backes +37
The 14 years old cameras of the H.E.S.S. 12-m telescopes have been upgraded in 2015/2016, with the goals of reducing the system failure rate, reducing the dead time and improving t…
Hardware and software architecture of the upgraded H.E.S.S. cameras
S. Klepser, T. Ashton, M. Backes +37
In 2015/16, the photomultiplier cameras of the H.E.S.S. Cherenkov telescopes CT1-4 have undergone a major upgrade. The entire electronics has been replaced, using NECTAr chips for…
The On-Site Analysis of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Andrea Bulgarelli, Valentina Fioretti, Andrea Zoli +54
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) observatory will be one of the largest ground-based very high-energy gamma-ray observatories. The On-Site Analysis will be the first CTA scienti…
Status and Plans for the Array Control and Data Acquisition System of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
I. Oya, M. Fuessling, U. Schwanke +24
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next-generation atmospheric Cherenkov gamma-ray observatory. CTA will consist of two installations, one in the northern, and the other in…
Modern middleware for the data acquisition of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Etienne Lyard, Roland Walter, Karl Kosack +5
The data acquisition system (DAQ) of the future Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) must be ef- ficient, modular and robust to be able to cope with the very large data rate of up to 55…
