Simulation-based spectral analysis of X-ray CCD data affected by photon pile-up
Tsubasa Tamba, Hirokazu Odaka, Aya Bamba +6
We have developed a simulation-based method of spectral analysis for pile-up affected data of X-ray CCDs without any loss of photon statistics. As effects of the photon pile-up app…
Observational constraints on the maximum energies of accelerated particles in supernova remnants: low maximum energies and a large variety
Hiromasa Suzuki, Aya Bamba, Ryo Yamazaki +1
Supernova remnants (SNRs) are thought to be the most promising sources of Galactic cosmic rays. One of the principal questions is whether they are accelerating particles up to the…
Physics Performance of the Large-Sized Telescope prototype of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
R. López-Coto, A. Moralejo, M. Artero +15
The Large-Sized Telescope (LST) prototype of the future Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is located at the Northern site of CTA, on the Canary Island of La Palma. It is designed to…
Spatial and Temporal Variations of the Chandra ACIS Particle-Induced Background and Development of a Spectral-Model Generation Tool
Hiromasa Suzuki, Paul P. Plucinsky, Terrance J. Gaetz +1
In X-ray observations, estimation of the particle-induced background is important especially for faint and/or diffuse sources. Although software exists to generate total (sky and d…
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…
