Design and preliminary performance study of the broad-band spectrometer detector for POLAR-2
Jian-Chao Sun, Jiang He, Shuang-Nan Zhang +46
POLAR-2, the successor of the POLAR experiment aboard China's Tiangong-2 space lab, is set to be deployed on the China Space Station. The POLAR-2 mission aims to conducting high-pr…
Prospects of Prompt Gamma-Ray Burst Polarimetry with POLAR-2
Ramandeep Gill, Jiang He, Jonathan Granot +6
The dominant radiation mechanism that powers the prompt -ray emission in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) remains poorly understood. High quality, time- and energy-resolved linear polari…
Exploiting light coherence in astrophysics
Vitalii Sliusar, Domenico Della Volpe, Benjamin Garcia +7
The Hanbury Brown-Twiss (HBT) effect, discovered in the 1950s and further developed in the 1960s, was originally used to estimate stellar angular diameters through intensity correl…
Stellar physics at sub-nanoradian angular resolution
P. Batista, J. Biteau, C. Carlile +36
Many stars -- if they could be imaged with enough angular resolution -- would exhibit features expected from theory but not possible to extract from spectra. We may group these by…
POLAR-2 -- Latest Developments of the Next Generation GRB Polarimeter
Johannes Hulsman, Philipp Azzarello, Joerg Bayer +20
Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are among the most energetic events in the Universe. Despite over 50 years of research and measurements their prompt emission remains poorly understood, wit…
Gamma-Ray Burst Polarimetry with the POLAR and POLAR-2 missions
Nicolas De Angelis, Philipp Azzarello, Franck Cadoux +15
Gamma-Ray Bursts are among the most powerful and violent events in the Universe. Despite over half a century of observations of these transient sources, many open questions remain…
Probing Stellar Kinematics with the Time-Asymmetric Hanbury Brown and Twiss Effect
Lucijana Stanic, Ivan Cardea, Edoardo Charbon +11
Intensity interferometry (II) offers a powerful means to observe stellar objects with a high resolution. In this work, we demonstrate that II can also probe internal stellar kinema…
Performance of MAGIC stellar intensity interferometer and expansion to MAGIC + CTAO-LST1 stellar intensity interferometer
Alejo Cifuentes, V. A. Acciari, F. Barnes +24
A new generation of optical intensity interferometers are emerging in recent years taking advantage of the existing infrastructure of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACT…
Design and Performance of a Universal SiPM Readout System for X- and Gamma-Ray Missions
Merlin Kole, Nicolas De Angelis, Nicolas Produit +15
The advent of both multi-messenger and time-domain astrophysics over the last decade has seen a large interest in the development of small-scale, cheap, and robust gamma-ray detect…
Synchrotron polarization of a hybrid distribution of relativistic thermal and nonthermal electrons in GRB prompt emission
Kangfa Cheng, Jirong Mao, Xiaohong Zhao +4
Synchrotron polarization of relativistic nonthermal electrons in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) has been widely studied. However, recent numerical simulations of relativistic shocks and m…
Response of the first POLAR-2 Prototype to Polarized Beams
Merlin Kole, Nicolas de Angelis, Ana Bacelj +15
POLAR-2 is a dedicated gamma-ray polarimeter currently foreseen to be launched towards the China Space Station around 2027. The design of the detector is based on the legacy of its…
Galactic transient sources with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory Consortium
A wide variety of Galactic sources show transient emission at soft and hard X-ray energies: low- and high-mass X-ray binaries containing compact objects, isolated neutron stars exh…
Future Perspectives for Gamma-ray Burst Detection from Space
Enrico Bozzo, Lorenzo Amati, Wayne Baumgartner +35
Since their first discovery in the late 1960s, Gamma-ray bursts have attracted an exponentially growing interest from the international community due to their central role in the m…
Dark Matter Line Searches with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
S. Abe, J. Abhir, A. Abhishek +562
Monochromatic gamma-ray signals constitute a potential smoking gun signature for annihilating or decaying dark matter particles that could relatively easily be distinguished from a…
Prospects for a survey of the Galactic plane with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
CTA Consortium
Approximately one hundred sources of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma rays are known in the Milky Way. A survey of the entire Galactic Plane in the energy range from a few tens of GeV…
Polarization measurements of the Crab Pulsar with POLAR
