Standardised formats and open-source analysis tools for the MAGIC telescopes data
S. Abe, J. Abhir, A. Abhishek +208
Instruments for gamma-ray astronomy at Very High Energies () have traditionally derived their scientific results through proprietary data and software. Data stand…
Performance and first measurements of the MAGIC Stellar Intensity Interferometer
MAGIC Collaboration, S. Abe, J. Abhir +217
In recent years, a new generation of optical intensity interferometers has emerged, leveraging the existing infrastructure of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs). The…
Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes pointing determination using the trajectories of the stars in the field of view
Mykhailo Dalchenko, Matthieu Heller
We present a new approach to the pointing determination of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs). This method is universal and can be applied to any IACT with minor modi…
Performance of the joint LST-1 and MAGIC observations evaluated with Crab Nebula data
H. Abe, K. Abe, S. Abe +365
Aims. LST-1, the prototype of the Large-Sized Telescope for the upcoming Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory, is concluding its commissioning in Observatorio del Roque de los Muc…
Interpolation of Instrument Response Functions for the Cherenkov Telescope Array in the Context of pyirf
Rune Michael Dominik, Maximilian Linhoff, Julian Sitarek
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the next generation ground-based very-high-energy gamma-ray observatory, constituted by tens of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes…
Performance update of an event-type based analysis for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Juan Bernete, Orel Gueta, Tarek Hassan +3
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the next-generation observatory in the field of very-high-energy (20 GeV to 300 TeV) gamma-ray astroparticle physics. The traditional ap…
Characterization of SiPM and development of test bench modules for the next-generation cameras for Large-Sized Telescopes for Cherenkov Telescope Array
Takayuki. Saito, K. Hashiyama, H. Iwasaki +5
The recent improvements in the performance of the silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) made them attractive options as photo sensors of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs)…
Evaluation of the effective mirror area of CTA Small-Sized Telescopes for camera design and Monte Carlo simulation
Akira Okumura, Duncan Ross, Francesco G. Saturni +2
The effective mirror area of an imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope is a crucial key parameter for trigger threshold determination and energy calibration. It is usually calcula…
The ASTRI Mini-Array of Cherenkov Telescopes at the Observatorio del Teide
Scuderi S., Giuliani A., Pareschi G. +95
The ASTRI Mini-Array (MA) is an INAF project to build and operate a facility to study astronomical sources emitting at very high-energy in the TeV spectral band. The ASTRI MA consi…
Cross-calibration and combined analysis of the CTA-LST prototype and the MAGIC telescopes
Y. Ohtani, A. Berti, D. Depaoli +13
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the next generation gamma-ray observatory, which will consist of three kinds of telescopes of different sizes. Among those, the Large Si…
Reconstruction of extensive air shower images of the first Large Size Telescope prototype of CTA using a novel likelihood technique
Gabriel Emery, Cyril Alispach, Mykhailo Dalchenko +3
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy aims at reconstructing the energy and direction of gamma rays from the extensive air showers they initiate in the atmosphere. Imaging Atmospheric C…
Commissioning of the camera of the first Large Size Telescope of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
T. Saito, C. Delgado, O. Blanch +30
The first Large Size Telescope (LST-1) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array has been operational since October 2018 at La Palma, Spain. We report on the results obtained during the cam…
