Atmospheric Aerosols at the MAGIC Site
Daniel Garrido, Markus Gaug, Michele Doro +3
We investigate the performance of the MAGIC telescopes under three simulated atmospheric conditions: an increased aerosol content in the lower part of the troposphere, the presence…
Physics performance of the upgraded MAGIC telescopes obtained with Crab Nebula data
Julian Sitarek, Emiliano Carmona, Pierre Colin +11
MAGIC is a system of two Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes located at the Canary Island of La Palma, designed to observe gamma rays with energies above 50 GeV. Recently it h…
The IFAE/UAB and LUPM Raman LIDARs for Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
A. López-Oramas, O. Abril, O. Blanch Bigas +8
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next generation of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes. It will reach a sensitivity and an energy resolution with no precendent in v…
Characterization of the candidate site for the Cherenkov Telescope Array at the Observatorio del Teide
Irene Puerto-Giménez, Markus Gaug, Rafael Barrena +5
The Spanish partners of the future Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) have selected a candidate site for the Northern installation of CTA, at 3 km from the Observatorio del Teide (OT)…
A Central Laser Facility for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Markus Gaug, Carla Aramo, Marco Cilmo +3
A Central Laser Facility is a system often used in astroparticle experiments based on arrays of fluorescence or Cherenkov light detectors. The instrument is based on a laser source…
Towards a full Atmospheric Calibration system for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
M. Doro, M. Gaug, O. Blanch +4
The current generation of Cherenkov telescopes is mainly limited in their gamma-ray energy and flux reconstruction by uncertainties in the determination of atmospheric parameters.…
Impact of E-ELT laser light on Cherenkov Telescope Array cameras
Markus Gaug, Michele Doro
As one of the options, the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) Consortium is considering the possibility to install its Southern array in Chile, in the Atacama Desert. The envisaged si…
Night Sky Background Analysis for the Cherenkov Telescope Array using the Atmoscope instrument
Markus Gaug
The site selection group for the future Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) has deployed sensitive light sensors at 9 candidate sites, 5 of them in the Southern and 4 in the Northern h…
Analysis techniques and performance of the Domino Ring Sampler version 4 based readout for the MAGIC telescopes
Julian Sitarek, Markus Gaug, Daniel Mazin +2
Recently the readout of the MAGIC telescopes has been upgraded to a new system based on the Domino Ring Sampler version 4 chip. We present the analysis techniques and the signal ex…
