Design and Performance of the Upgraded Prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope Camera Module
Giovanni Ambrosi, Carla Aramo, Mattia Barbanera +54
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) is a ground-based observatory that will improve upon the sensitivities of the current generation of very-high-energy gamma-ray inst…
Evaluation of the effective mirror area of CTA Small-Sized Telescopes for camera design and Monte Carlo simulation
Akira Okumura, Duncan Ross, Francesco G. Saturni +2
The effective mirror area of an imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope is a crucial key parameter for trigger threshold determination and energy calibration. It is usually calcula…
Advanced Analysis of Night Sky Background Light for SSTCAM
Samuel Timothy Spencer, Jason John Watson, Gianluca Giavitto +2
Night Sky Background (NSB) is a complex phenomenon, consisting of all light detected by Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) not attributable to Cherenkov light emissio…
Design and Performance of the Prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope Camera
Colin B. Adams, Giovanni Ambrosi, Michelangelo Ambrosio +86
The prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope (pSCT) is a candidate for a medium-sized telescope in the Cherenkov Telescope Array. The pSCT is based on a novel dual mirror optics de…
Design and performance of the prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope camera
C. B. Adams, G. Ambrosi, M. Ambrosio +71
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next-generation ground-based observatory for very-high-energy gamma-ray astronomy. An innovative 9.7 m aperture, dual-mirror Schwarzschil…
Evidence of 100 TeV -ray emission from HESS J1702-420: A new PeVatron candidate
H. Abdalla, F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali +232
The identification of PeVatrons, hadronic particle accelerators reaching the knee of the cosmic ray spectrum (few eV), is crucial to understand the origin of cosmic rays…
CHEC: A Compact High Energy Camera for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Richard White
The Cherenkov Telescope Array will provide unprecedented sensitivity and angular resolution to gamma rays across orders of magnitude in energy. Above 1 TeV up to around 300 TeV an…
A Compact High Energy Camera (CHEC) for the Gamma-ray Cherenkov Telescope of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Richard White, Harm Schoorlemmer
The Gamma-ray Cherenkov Telescope (GCT) is one of the Small Size Telescopes (SSTs) proposed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) aimed at the 1 TeV to 300 TeV energy range. GCT…
Inauguration and First Light of the GCT-M Prototype for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
J. J. Watson, A. De Franco, A. Abchiche +66
The Gamma-ray Cherenkov Telescope (GCT) is a candidate for the Small Size Telescopes (SSTs) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). Its purpose is to extend the sensitivity of CTA…
Flasher and muon-based calibration of the GCT telescopes proposed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Anthony M. Brown, Thomas Armstrong, Paula M. Chadwick +2
The GCT is a dual-mirror Small-Sized-Telescope prototype proposed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array. Calibration of the GCT's camera is primarily achieved with LED-based flasher un…
The dual-mirror Small Size Telescope for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
G. Pareschi, G. Agnetta, L. A. Antonelli +111
In this paper, the development of the dual mirror Small Size Telescopes (SST) for the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is reviewed. Up to 70 SST, with a primary mirror diameter of 4…
