Status and Future of Ground-Based TeV Gamma-Ray Astronomy
This is a report on the findings of the extragalactic science working group for the white paper on the status and future of TeV gamma-ray astronomy. The white paper was commissioned by the American Physical Society, and the full white paper can be found on astro-ph (arXiv:0810.0444). This detailed section discusses extragalactic science topics including active galactic nuclei, cosmic ray accele...
متن کاملTeV Gamma Ray Astronomy
The field of ground-based gamma ray astronomy has enjoyed rapid growth in recent years. As an increasing number of sources are detected at TeV energies, the field has matured and become a viable branch of modern astronomy. Lying at the uppermost end of the electromagnetic rainbow, TeV photons are always preciously few in number but carry essential information about the particle acceleration and...
متن کاملGamma-ray Line Astronomy *
Gamma-ray lines from radioactive isotopes, ejected into interstellar space by cosmic nucleosynthesis events, are observed with new space telescopes. The Compton Observatory had provided a sky survey for the isotopes 26 Al, detecting supernova radioactivity and the diffuse glow of long-lived radioactivity from massive stars in the Galaxy. High-resolution spectroscopy is now being exploited with ...
متن کاملGamma Ray Astronomy
This paper summarizes recents results in γ-ray astronomy, most of which were derived with data from groundbased γ-ray detectors. Many of the contributions presented at this conference involve multiwavelength studies which combine ground-based γ-ray measurements with optical data or space-based X-ray and γ-ray measurements. Besides measurements of the diffuse emission from the Galaxy, observatio...
متن کاملFuture Directions in Ground-Based Gamma-Ray Astronomy
With the recent successes of gamma-ray astronomy an obvious question is raised: where is this field going next? At present we have a network of similar air Cerenkov telescope arrays throughout the world and a large water detector in the USA. Here we try to identify which practical paths exist to newer, more sensitive instruments and what these might hold for the future.
