Prototyping of Hexagonal Light Concentrators for the Large-Sized Telescopes of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Akira Okumura, Sakiya Ono, Syunya Tanaka +3
Reflective light concentrators with hexagonal entrance and exit apertures are frequently used at the focal plane of gamma-ray telescopes in order to reduce the size of the dead are…
The Optical System for the Large Size Telescope of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
M. Hayashida, K. Noda, M. Teshima +20
The Large Size Telescope (LST) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is designed to achieve a threshold energy of 20 GeV. The LST optics is composed of one parabolic primary mirro…
Electron acceleration with improved Stochastic Differential Equation method: cutoff shape of electron distribution in test-particle limit
Ryo Yamazaki, Tatsuo Yoshida, Yuka Tsuchihashi +3
We develop a method of stochastic differential equation to simulate electron acceleration at astrophysical shocks. Our method is based on Itô's stochastic differential equations co…
