Observatory Science with eXTP
Ping Zhou, Jirong Mao, Liang Zhang +97
Scheduled for launch in 2030, the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarization (eXTP) telescope is a Chinese space-based mission aimed at studying extreme conditions and phenomena in ast…
tilepy: rapid tiling strategies in mid/small FoV observatories
Fabian Schüssler, Halim Ashkar, Mathieu de Bony de Lavergne +1
The challenges inherent to time-domain multi-messenger astronomy require strategic actions so that adapted, optimized follow-up observations are performed efficiently. In particula…
Science verification of the new FlashCam-based camera in the 28m telescope of H.E.S.S
Gerd Pühlhofer, Konrad Bernlöhr, Baiyang Bi +13
In October 2019 the central 28m telescope of the H.E.S.S. experiment has been upgraded with a new camera. The camera is based on the FlashCam design which has been developed in vie…
Astronomy outreach in Namibia: H.E.S.S. and beyond
Hannah Dalgleish, Heike Prokoph, Sylvia Zhu +6
Astronomy plays a major role in the scientific landscape of Namibia. Because of its excellent sky conditions, Namibia is home to ground-based observatories like the High Energy Spe…
