Variability studies of active galactic nuclei from the long-term monitoring program with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Guillaume Grolleron, Josefa Becerra González, Jonathan Biteau +13
Blazars are active galactic nuclei (AGN) with a relativistic jet oriented toward the observer. This jet is composed of accelerated particles which can display emission over the ent…
Bright blazar flares with CTA

The TeV extragalactic sky is dominated by blazars, radio-loud active galactic nuclei with a relativistic jet pointing towards the Earth. Blazars show variability that can be quite…
Dark matter searches in dwarf spheroidal galaxies with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Francesco Gabriele Saturni, Michele Doro, Aldo Morselli +1
Dark matter (DM) is one of the major components in the Universe. However, at present its existence is still only inferred through indirect astronomical observations. DM particles c…
