Estimation of the atmospheric absorption profile with isotropic background events observed by Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes
Julian Sitarek, Mario Pecimotika, Natalia Żywucka +3
Atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes rely on the Earth's atmosphere as part of the detector. The presence of clouds affects observations and can introduce biases if not corrected for.…
Correction method applied to MC simulated LST images affected by clouds
Natalia Żywucka, Julian Sitarek, Dorota Sobczyńska +5
We present the results of a preliminary study of a correction method applied to the Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope images affected by clouds. The studied data are Monte Ca…
A novel image correction method for cloud-affected observations with Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes
Natalia Żywucka, Julian Sitarek, Dorota Sobczyńska +5
Context. The presence of clouds during observations with Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes can strongly affect the performance of the instrument due to additional absorption…
The Power Board of the KM3NeT Digital Optical Module: design, upgrade, and production
S. Aiello, A. Albert, S. Alves Garre +281
The KM3NeT Collaboration is building an underwater neutrino observatory at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea consisting of two neutrino telescopes, both composed of a three-dimen…
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…
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)…
Embedded Software of the KM3NeT Central Logic Board
S. Aiello, A. Albert, S. Alves Garre +271
The KM3NeT Collaboration is building and operating two deep sea neutrino telescopes at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea. The telescopes consist of latices of photomultiplier tub…
First observation of the cosmic ray shadow of the Moon and the Sun with KM3NeT/ORCA
KM3NeT Collaboration
This article reports the first observation of the Moon and the Sun shadows in the sky distribution of cosmic-ray induced muons measured by the KM3NeT/ORCA detector. The analysed da…
Nanobeacon: A time calibration device for the KM3NeT neutrino telescope
S. Aiello, A. Albert, M. Alshamsi +238
The KM3NeT Collaboration is currently constructing a multi-site high-energy neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean Sea consisting of matrices of pressure-resistant glass spheres,…
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…
