First operation of LArTPC in the stratosphere as an engineering GRAMS balloon flight (eGRAMS)
R. Nakajima, S. Arai, K. Aoyama +60
GRAMS (Gamma-Ray and AntiMatter Survey) is a next-generation balloon/satellite experiment utilizing a LArTPC (Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber), to simultaneously target astrop…
Exploring the Potential of the Pulsed Laser onboard the CALIPSO Satellite to Improve Calibration with VERITAS
Gregory Foote
Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) are used to detect bright nanosecond-duration flashes of optical light originating from interactions of cosmic/gamma-rays in the at…
A VERITAS/Breakthrough Listen Search for Optical Technosignatures
Atreya Acharyya, Colin Adams, Avery Archer +65
The Breakthrough Listen Initiative is conducting a program using multiple telescopes around the world to search for "technosignatures": artificial transmitters of extraterrestrial…
Performance of the X-Calibur Hard X-Ray Polarimetry Mission during its 2018/19 Long-Duration Balloon Flight
Quincy Abarr, Banafsheh Beheshtipour, Matthias Beilicke +28
X-Calibur is a balloon-borne telescope that measures the polarization of high-energy X-rays in the 15--50keV energy range. The instrument makes use of the fact that X-rays scatter…
Design and Performance of the Prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope Camera
Colin B. Adams, Giovanni Ambrosi, Michelangelo Ambrosio +86
The prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope (pSCT) is a candidate for a medium-sized telescope in the Cherenkov Telescope Array. The pSCT is based on a novel dual mirror optics de…
The throughput calibration of the VERITAS telescopes
C. B. Adams, W. Benbow, A. Brill +42
Context. The response of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes to incident γ-ray-initiated showers in the atmosphere changes as the telescopes age due to exposure to light and w…
