To cut or not to cut: Data-quality evaluation for the ASTRI Mini-Array
E. Molina, L. Foffano, S. Crestan +4
The ASTRI Mini-Array consists of nine Cherenkov telescopes under construction at the Observatorio del Teide, with one of them already performing observations since November 2024. G…
Classification of Unidentified Extended LHAASO Sources based on their Gamma-Ray Morphology: Prospects for Future IACTs
Alberto Bonollo, Paolo Esposito, Andrea Giulisni +4
While Supernova Remnants (SNRs) are widely considered the primary accelerators of cosmic rays (CRs) up to hundreds of TeV, they struggle to account for the CR flux at PeV energies,…
Morphology of Young Massive Stellar Clusters with Next-Generation IACTs
Alberto Bonollo, Paolo Esposito, Andrea Giuliani +5
The term PeVatron designates astrophysical objects capable of accelerating particles to PeV energies. Their nature and particle acceleration mechanisms are uncertain, but ultra-hig…
Unveiling TeV halos among unidentified extended TeV sources
Michela Rigoselli, Sarah Recchia, Alberto Bonollo +4
In recent years, the number of known sources emitting very- and ultra-high-energy gamma-rays has increased significantly thanks to facilities such as LHAASO and HAWC. Many of the o…
Learning from ASTRI-Horn: products and applications of Variance data
Simone Iovenitti, Silvia Crestan, Teresa Mineo +3
In the context of the ASTRI MiniArray project (9 dual-mirror air Cherenkov telescopes being installed at the Observatorio del Teide in the Canary Islands), the ASTRI- Horn prototyp…
