Investigation of magnetic-field effects on photomultiplier tubes for the first Large-Sized Telescope of the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory

Yukiho Kobayashi, Dai Tateishi, Yuji Sunada +28

Photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) are widely used in imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Their response can depend on the telescope pointing direction through changes in their ori…

Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes pointing determination using the trajectories of the stars in the field of view

Mykhailo Dalchenko, Matthieu Heller

We present a new approach to the pointing determination of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs). This method is universal and can be applied to any IACT with minor modi…
