Calibration and Performance Validation of the SST-1M Telescopes Using Crab Nebula Observations
Thomas Tavernier, Jakub Juryšek, Vladimir Novotny
SST-1M is a prototype single mirror Small Sized Cherenkov Telescope designed for very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray astronomy. With a 4 meter primary mirror and a 5.6 meter focal len…
SST-1M Observations of Markarian 421
Srija Reddy Muthyala, Anabella Araudo, Jakub Juryšek +1
Markarian 421 (Mrk 421) is the closest and one of the brightest high-frequency peaked blazars, located at a redshift of z = 0.031. It is a strong source of gamma rays, and its broa…
Observation of Astrophysical Sources with SST-1M Telescopes -- First Results
Jakub JuryÅ¡ek, Thomas Tavernier, VladimÃr Novotný
The Single-Mirror Small Size Cherenkov Telescope (SST-1M) was developed by a consortium of institutes in Switzerland, Poland, and the Czech Republic. The SST-1M design is based on…
Hybrid concept of detection for a wide-field gamma-ray observatory using Cherenkov telescopes
Alena Bakalová, Ruben Conceição, Lucio Gibilisco +6
The hybrid detection approach in astroparticle physics has been successfully employed in cosmic-ray experiments and is currently being explored by gamma-ray observatories like LHAA…
Stereo performance of SST-1M at different altitudes
Patrik Äechvala, VladimÃr Novotný, JiÅà Blažek +3
The SST-1M telescopes are a pair of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) that have been operating at the OndÅejov Observatory (510 m a.s.l.) in the Czech Republic sinc…
Observation of VER J2019+368 with the SST-1M stereoscopic system
Jakub Juryšek, Thomas Tavernier, Ana Laura Müller
The Single-Mirror Small Size Telescope (SST-1M) is a small Cherenkov telescope designed to detect gamma rays with energies more than about 1 TeV. The optical design of the SST-1M f…
