ROBAST: Development of a ROOT-Based Ray-Tracing Library for Cosmic-Ray Telescopes and its Applications in the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Akira Okumura, Koji Noda, Cameron Rulten
We have developed a non-sequential ray-tracing simulation library, ROOT-based simulator for ray tracing (ROBAST), which is aimed to be widely used in optical simulations of cosmic-…
Testing a Novel Self-Assembling Data Paradigm in the Context of IACT Data
Amanda Weinstein, Lucy Fortson, Thomas Brantseg +5
The process of gathering and associating data from multiple sensors or sub-detectors due to a common physical event (the process of event-building) is used in many fields, includin…
The first GCT camera for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
A. De Franco, R. White, D. Allan +32
The Gamma Cherenkov Telescope (GCT) is proposed to be part of the Small Size Telescope (SST) array of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). The GCT dual-mirror optical design allows…
Monte Carlo Studies of the GCT Telescope for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Thomas Armstrong, Heide Costantini, Cameron Rulten +2
The GCT is an innovative dual-mirror solution proposed for the small-size telescopes for CTA, capable of imaging primary cosmic gamma-rays from below a TeV to hundreds of TeV. The…
ROBAST: Development of a Non-Sequential Ray-Tracing Simulation Library and its Applications in the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Akira Okumura, Koji Noda, Cameron Rulten
We have developed a non-sequential ray-tracing simulation library, ROot-BAsed Simulator for ray Tracing (ROBAST), which is aimed for wide use in optical simulations of cosmic-ray (…
Discovery of variable VHE gamma-ray emission from the binary system 1FGL J1018.6-5856
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +230
Re-observations with the H.E.S.S. telescope array of the very-high-energy (VHE) source HESS J1018-589 A coincident with the Fermi-LAT -ray binary 1FGL J1018.6-5856 have resulted…
