Detection of the Crab Nebula with the 9.7 m Prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope
C. B. Adams, R. Alfaro, G. Ambrosi +105
The Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope (SCT) is a telescope concept proposed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array. It employs a dual-mirror optical design to remove comatic aberrations ov…
Soft x-ray detection for small satellites with a commercial CMOS sensor at room temperature
Steve Tammes, Tyler Roth, Philip Kaaret +4
Recently CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) sensors have progressed to a point where they may offer improved performance in imaging x-ray detection compared to the CCDs…
A disk-dominated and clumpy circumgalactic medium of the Milky Way seen in X-ray emission
P. Kaaret, D. Koutroumpa, K. D. Kuntz +7
The Milky Way galaxy is surrounded by a circumgalactic medium (CGM) that may play a key role in galaxy evolution as the source of gas for star formation and a repository of metals…
Sensitivity of the Cherenkov Telescope Array for probing cosmology and fundamental physics with gamma-ray propagation
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Consortium, :, H. Abdalla +496
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA), the new-generation ground-based observatory for -ray astronomy, provides unique capabilities to address significant open questions in astrop…
Demonstration of stellar intensity interferometry with the four VERITAS telescopes
A. U. Abeysekara, W. Benbow, A. Brill +52
High angular resolution observations at optical wavelengths provide valuable insights in stellar astrophysics, directly measuring fundamental stellar parameters, and probing stella…
Global X-Ray Properties of the Vela and Puppis A Supernova Remnants
E. M. Silich, P. Kaaret, A. Zajczyk +5
The Vela and Puppis A supernova remnants (SNRs) comprise a large emission region of diameter in the soft X-ray sky. The HaloSat CubeSat mission provides the first…
