Characterisation and Testing of CHEC-M - a camera prototype for the Small-Sized Telescopes of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
J. Zorn, R. White, J. J. Watson +42
The Compact High Energy Camera (CHEC) is a camera design for the Small-Sized Telescopes (SSTs; 4 m diameter mirror) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). The SSTs are focused on…
Science with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Consortium, :, B. S. Acharya +580
The Cherenkov Telescope Array, CTA, will be the major global observatory for very high energy gamma-ray astronomy over the next decade and beyond. The scientific potential of CTA i…
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…
The Gamma-ray Cherenkov Telescope for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
L. Tibaldo, A. Abchiche, D. Allan +67
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a forthcoming ground-based observatory for very-high-energy gamma rays. CTA will consist of two arrays of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov teles…
The GCT camera for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Anthony M. Brown, A. Abchiche, D. Allan +63
The Gamma-ray Cherenkov Telescope (GCT) is proposed for the Small-Sized Telescope component of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). GCT's dual-mirror Schwarzschild-Couder (SC) opti…
The first GCT camera for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
A. De Franco, R. White, D. Allan +32
The Gamma Cherenkov Telescope (GCT) is proposed to be part of the Small Size Telescope (SST) array of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). The GCT dual-mirror optical design allows…
Status of the technologies for the production of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) mirrors
G. Pareschi, T. Armstrong, H. Baba +54
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next generation very high-energy gamma-ray observatory, with at least 10 times higher sensitivity than current instruments. CTA will comp…
The Formation of Condensation on Cherenkov Telescope Mirrors
P. M. Chadwick, S. A. Cleaver, M. Dyrda +5
The mirrors of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes are different from those of conventional astronomical telescopes in several ways, not least in that they are exposed to the…
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…
Mirror Development for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
A. Förster, T. Armstrong, H. Baba +53
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a planned observatory for very-high energy gamma-ray astronomy. It will consist of several tens of telescopes of different sizes, with a tota…
Dielectric Coatings for IACT Mirrors
A. Förster, T. Arrmstrong, P. Chadwick +1
Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes for very-high energy gamma-ray astronomy need mirror with high reflectance roughly in the wavelength between 300 and 550 nm. The current st…
