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…
Adapting the 23m LST-North mechanical structure design for the strong Chile seismic environment
Thomas Schweizer, Josef Eder, Teshima Masahiro +2
The 23-meter-diameter Large-Sized Telescope (LST) is the largest size telescope of the next generation Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). The first telescope, LST-1, was installed at…
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…
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…
Reconstruction of extensive air shower images of the first Large Size Telescope prototype of CTA using a novel likelihood technique
Gabriel Emery, Cyril Alispach, Mykhailo Dalchenko +3
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy aims at reconstructing the energy and direction of gamma rays from the extensive air showers they initiate in the atmosphere. Imaging Atmospheric C…
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…
