First successful satellite laser ranging with a fibre-based transmitter
Daniel Hampf, Fabian Sproll, Paul Wagner +3
Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) is an established technology used for geodesy, fundamental science and precise orbit determination. This paper reports on the first successful SLR mea…
Optical technologies for the observation of low Earth orbit objects
Daniel Hampf, Paul Wagner, Wolfgang Riede
In order to avoid collisions with space debris, the near Earth orbit must be continuously scanned by either ground- or spaced-based facilities. For the low Earth orbit, radar teles…
The HiSCORE concept for gamma-ray and cosmic-ray astrophysics beyond 10\,TeV
Martin Tluczykont, Daniel Hampf, Dieter Horns +5
Air-shower measurements in the primary energy range beyond 10 TeV can be used to address important questions of astroparticle and particle physics. The most prominent among these q…
Event reconstruction techniques for the wide-angle air Cherenkov detector HiSCORE
Daniel Hampf, Martin Tluczykont, Dieter Horns
Wide-angle, non-imaging air Cherenkov detectors provide a way to observe cosmic gamma-rays which is complementary to observations by imaging Cherenkov telescopes. Their particular…
The ground-based large-area wide-angle gamma-ray and cosmic-ray experiment HiSCORE
Martin Tluczykont, Daniel Hampf, Dieter Horns +4
The question of the origin of cosmic rays and other questions of astroparticle and particle physics can be addressed with indirect air-shower observations above 10 TeV primary ener…
Measurement of night sky brightness in southern Australia
Daniel Hampf, Gavin Rowell, Neville Wild +3
Night sky brightness is a major source of noise both for Cherenkov telescopes as well as for wide-angle Cherenkov detectors. Therefore, it is important to know the level of night s…
Simulation of the expected performance for the proposed gamma-ray detector HiSCORE
Daniel Hampf, Martin Tluczykont, Dieter Horns
The HiSCORE project aims at opening up a new energy window in gamma-ray astronomy: The energy range above 30 TeV and up to several PeV. For this, a new detector system is being des…
Event reconstruction with the proposed large area Cherenkov air shower detector SCORE
Daniel Hampf, Martin Tluczykont, Dieter Horns
The proposed SCORE detector consists of a large array of light collecting modules designed to sample the Cherenkov light front of extensive air showers in order to detect high ener…
Gamma-ray and Cosmic Ray Astrophysics from 10 TeV to 1 EeV with the large-area (10 km) air-shower Detector SCORE
M. Tluczykont, T. Kneiske, D. Hampf +1
We propose to explore the so-far poorly measured cosmic ray and gamma-ray sky (accelerator sky) in the energy range from 10 TeV to 1 EeV. New physics questions might be addressed i…
