A next generation Ultra-Fast Flash Observatory (UFFO-100) for IR/optical observations of the rise phase of gamma-ray bursts
B. Grossan, I. H. Park, S. Ahmad +39
The Swift Gamma-ray Burst (GRB) observatory responds to GRB triggers with optical observations in ~ 100 s, but cannot respond faster than ~ 60 s. While some ground-based telescopes…
Data Acquisition System for the UFFO Pathfinder
G. W. Na, K. -B. Ahn, H. S. Choi +22
The Ultra-Fast Flash Observatory (UFFO) Pathfinder is a payload on the Russian Lomonosov satellite, scheduled to be launched in November 2011. The Observatory is designed to detect…
Design and Fabrication of Detector Module for UFFO Burst Alert & Trigger Telescope
A. Jung, S. Ahmad, K. -B. Ahn +39
The Ultra-Fast Flash Observatory (UFFO) pathfinder is a space mission devoted to the measurement of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), especially their early light curves which will give cru…
Optical Performances of Slewing Mirror Telescope for UFFO-Pathfinder
S. Jeong, K. -B. Ahn, J. W. Nam +21
The Ultra-Fast Flash Observatory-Pathfinder (UFFO-P) is to be launched onboard Lomonosov spacecraft in November 2011. It is to measure early UV/Optical photons from Gamma Ray Burst…
The UFFO (Ultra Fast Flash Observatory) Pathfinder: Science and Mission
P. Chen, S. Ahmad, K. Ahn +39
Hundreds of gamma-ray burst (GRB) optical light curves have been measured since the discovery of optical afterglows. However, even after nearly 7 years of operation of the Swift Ob…
Implementation of the readout system in the UFFO Slewing Mirror Telescope
J. E. Kim, H. Lim, A. Jung +22
The Ultra-Fast Flash Observatory (UFFO) is a new space-based experiment to observe Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). GRBs are the most luminous electromagnetic events in the universe and oc…
Energy cross-calibration from the first CREAM flight: transition radiation detector versus calorimeter
P. Maestro, H. S. Ahn, P. S. Allison +35
The Cosmic Ray Energetics And Mass (CREAM) balloon experiment had two successful flights in 2004/05 and 2005/06. It was designed to perform energy measurements from a few GeV up to…
Performance of the CREAM calorimeter in accelerator beam test
Y. S. Yoon, H. S. Ahn, M. G. Bagliesi +24
The CREAM calorimeter, designed to measure the spectra of cosmic-ray nuclei from under 1 TeV to 1000 TeV, is a 20 radiation length (X0) deep sampling calorimeter. The calorimeter i…
The UFFO (Ultra-Fast Flash Observatory) Pathfinder
I. H. Park, B. Grossan, H. Lim +11
Hundreds of gamma-ray burst (GRB) UV-optical light curves have been measured since the discovery of optical afterglows, however, even after nearly 5 years of operation of the SWIFT…
Measurements of cosmic-ray secondary nuclei at high energies with the first flight of the CREAM balloon-borne experiment
H. S. Ahn, P. S. Allison, M. G. Bagliesi +34
We present new measurements of heavy cosmic-ray nuclei at high energies per- formed during the first flight of the balloon-borne cosmic-ray experiment CREAM (Cosmic-Ray Energetics…
