Construction of New 7m Imaging Air Čerenkov Telescope of CANGAROO
T. Tanimori, S. A. Dazeley, P. G. Edwards +28
CANGAROO group has constructed the new large imaging Air \v Cerenkov telescope to exploit hundred GeV region gamma-ray astronomy in March 1999 at Woomera, South Australia. It has a…
Search for TeV Gamma Rays from the SNR RXJ1713.7-3946
H. Muraishi, T. Tanimori, S. Yanagita +28
The shell type SNR RXJ1713.7-3946 is a new SNR discovered by the ROSAT all sky survey. Recently, strong non-thermal X-ray emission from the northwest part of the remnant was detect…
Data Acquisition System of the CANGAROO-II Telescope
M. Mori, S. A. Dazeley, P. G. Edwards +28
The data acquisition system for the new CANGAROO-II 7m telescope is described.
An Optical Reflector for the CANGAROO-II Telescope
Akiko Kawachi, J. Kushida, S. A. Dazeley +28
We have been successful in developing light and durable mirrors made of CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) laminates for the reflector of the new CANGAROO-II 7 m telescope. The…
TeV Gamma-ray Observations of Southern AGN with the CANGAROO 3.8m Telescople
M. D. Roberts, S. A. Dazeley, P. G. Edwards +28
Since 1992 the CANGAROO 3.8m imaging telescope has been used to search for sources of TeV gamma-rays. Results are presented here for observations of four Southern Hemisphere BL-Lac…
Very High Energy Gamma Rays from the Vela Pulsar/Nebula
T. Yoshikoshi, T. Kifune, S. A. Dazeley +28
We have observed the Vela pulsar region at TeV energies using the 3.8 m imaging Cherenkov telescope near Woomera, South Australia every year since 1992. This is the first concerted…
