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…
Direct comparison of SiPMs and PMTs in operation with a bright background and prospects of using SPADs as truly digital sensors
Razmik Mirzoyan, Alexander Hahn, David Fink +8
The use of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) alongside conventional photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) is a remarkable technological development in modern ground-based very high energy ga…
Development and Quality Control of PMT Modules for the Large-Sized Telescopes of the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
T. Saito, M. Takahashi, Y. Inome +56
The camera of the Large-Sized Telescopes (LSTs) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) consists of 1855 pixels that are grouped into 265 high-performance photomultipli…
Competition between Increasing and Decreasing Effects of the Afterpulsing Rate of PMTs during Night-Sky Observations
Takuto Kiyomoto, Tsutomu Nagayoshi, Shunsuke Sakurai +13
Photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) have been widely used in imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs). The Large-Sized Telescopes (LSTs) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observato…
Standardised formats and open-source analysis tools for the MAGIC telescopes data
S. Abe, J. Abhir, A. Abhishek +208
Instruments for gamma-ray astronomy at Very High Energies () have traditionally derived their scientific results through proprietary data and software. Data stand…
Direct Comparison of SiPM and PMT Sensor Performances in a large-size imaging air Cherenkov telescope
A. Hahn, R. Mirzoyan, A. Dettlaff +3
The peak photon detection efficiency (PDE) of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) can be as good or better than the PDE of photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). There are experiments where th…
