Prospects for Observing the Microquasar SS 433 with the LACT Array
Zhen Xie, Zhipeng Zhang, Ruizhi Yang
We investigate the observational capabilities of the upcoming LACT Cherenkov telescope array for the microquasar SS 433 through detailed simulations. Our results indicate that a de…
Stable but Wrong: When More Data Degrades Scientific Conclusions
Zhipeng Zhang, Kai Li
Modern science increasingly relies on ever-growing observational datasets and automated inference pipelines, under the implicit belief that accumulating more data makes scientific…
A Giant Peanut-shaped Ultra-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emitter Off the Galactic Plane
Zhen Cao, Felix Aharonian, Yunxiang Bai +312
Ultra-high-energy (UHE), exceeding 100 TeV (10^12 electronvolts), γ-rays manifests extreme particle acceleration in astrophysical sources. Recent observations by γ-ray telescopes…
Performance of LACT Array: Instrument Response Functions and Source Prospects
Zhipeng Zhang, Ruizhi Yang, Shoushan Zhang
Large Array of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (LACT) is an array of 32 Cherenkov telescopes with 6-meter diameter mirrors to be constructed at the LHAASO site, aiming to e…

Prospects for joint reconstruction of imaging air Cherenkov Telescope array and extensive air shower array
Zhipeng Zhang, Ruizhi Yang, Shoushan Zhang +5
In this paper we proposed a joint reconstruction of \gray events using both extensive air array (EAS) and Imaging air Cherenkov Telescope array (IACT). We considered eight Cherenko…
