Inauguration and First Light of the GCT-M Prototype for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
J. J. Watson, A. De Franco, A. Abchiche +66
The Gamma-ray Cherenkov Telescope (GCT) is a candidate for the Small Size Telescopes (SSTs) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). Its purpose is to extend the sensitivity of CTA…
Photosensor Characterization for the Cherenkov Telescope Array: Silicon Photomultiplier versus Multi-Anode Photomultiplier Tube
Aurelien Bouvier, Lloyd Gebremedhin, Caitlin Johnson +10
Photomultiplier tube technology has been the photodetector of choice for the technique of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes since its birth more than 50 years ago. Recently,…
Design Concepts for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
The CTA Consortium
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has had a major breakthrough with the impressive results obtained using systems of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Ground-based gamma-ray…
The STACEE Ground-Based Gamma-Ray Detector
STACEE Collaboration, D. M. Gingrich, L. M. Boone +17
We describe the design and performance of the Solar Tower Atmospheric Cherenkov Effect Experiment (STACEE) in its complete configuration. STACEE uses the heliostats of a solar ener…
STACEE Observations of Markarian 421 During an Extended Gamma-Ray Outburst
STACEE Collaboration, L. M. Boone, J. A. Hinton +14
The active galaxy Markarian 421 underwent a substantial outburst in early 2001. Between January and May of that year, the STACEE detector was used to observe the source in gamma-ra…
The STACEE-32 Ground Based Gamma-ray Detector
STACEE Collaboration, D. S. Hanna, D. Bhattacharya +18
We describe the design and performance of the Solar Tower Atmospheric Cherenkov Effect Experiment detector in its initial configuration (STACEE-32). STACEE is a new ground-based ga…
