Interpolation of Instrument Response Functions for the Cherenkov Telescope Array in the Context of pyirf
Rune Michael Dominik, Maximilian Linhoff, Julian Sitarek
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the next generation ground-based very-high-energy gamma-ray observatory, constituted by tens of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes…
Performance update of an event-type based analysis for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Juan Bernete, Orel Gueta, Tarek Hassan +3
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the next-generation observatory in the field of very-high-energy (20 GeV to 300 TeV) gamma-ray astroparticle physics. The traditional ap…
The ASTRI Mini-Array of Cherenkov Telescopes at the Observatorio del Teide
Scuderi S., Giuliani A., Pareschi G. +95
The ASTRI Mini-Array (MA) is an INAF project to build and operate a facility to study astronomical sources emitting at very high-energy in the TeV spectral band. The ASTRI MA consi…
Mirror production for the Cherenkov telescopes of the ASTRI Mini-Array and of the MST project for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
N. La Palombara, G. Sironi, E. Giro +14
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next ground-based -ray observatory in the TeV -ray spectral region operating with the Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Technique. It i…
Detection of the Crab Nebula with the 9.7 m Prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope
C. B. Adams, R. Alfaro, G. Ambrosi +105
The Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope (SCT) is a telescope concept proposed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array. It employs a dual-mirror optical design to remove comatic aberrations ov…
First detection of the Crab Nebula at TeV energies with a Cherenkov telescope in a dual-mirror Schwarzschild-Couder configuration: the ASTRI-Horn telescope
S. Lombardi, O. Catalano, S. Scuderi +89
We report on the first detection of very high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from the Crab Nebula by a Cherenkov telescope in dual-mirror Schwarzschild-Couder (SC) configuration.…
The INAF ASTRI Project in the framework of CTA
N. La Palombara, P. Caraveo, M. Fiorini +9
The ASTRI project aims to develop, in the framework of the Cherenkov Telescope Array, an end-to-end prototype of the small-size telescope, devoted to the investigation of the energ…
