First detection of the Crab Nebula at TeV energies with a Cherenkov telescope in a dual-mirror Schwarzschild-Couder configuration: the ASTRI-Horn telescope
S. Lombardi, O. Catalano, S. Scuderi +89
We report on the first detection of very high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from the Crab Nebula by a Cherenkov telescope in dual-mirror Schwarzschild-Couder (SC) configuration.…
SIOUX project: a simultaneous multiband camera for exoplanet atmospheres studies
Jean Marc Christille, Aldo Stefano Bonomo, Francesco Borsa +11
The exoplanet revolution is well underway. The last decade has seen order-of-magnitude increases in the number of known planets beyond the Solar system. Detailed characterization o…
A facility to evaluate the focusing performance of mirrors for Cherenkov Telescopes
Rodolfo Canestrari, Enrico Giro, Giacomo Bonnoli +6
Cherenkov Telescopes are equipped with optical dishes of large diameter -- in general based on segmented mirrors -- with typical angular resolution of a few arc-minutes. To evaluat…
ESPRESSO: The next European exoplanet hunter
F. Pepe, P. Molaro, S. Cristiani +55
The acronym ESPRESSO stems for Echelle SPectrograph for Rocky Exoplanets and Stable Spectroscopic Observations; this instrument will be the next VLT high resolution spectrograph. T…
Photometric transit search for planets around cool stars from the western Italian Alps: A pilot study
P. Giacobbe, M. Damasso, A. Sozzetti +7
[ABRIDGED] In this study, we set out to a) demonstrate the sensitivity to <4 R_E transiting planets with periods of a few days around our program stars, and b) improve our knowledg…
