Minimal Stereoscopic Analysis for Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope Arrays
The trajectory of a primary γ-ray detected with an array of at least four atmospheric Cherenkov imaging telescopes can be reconstructed from the shower image centroid positions and geometrical considerations independent of the primary energy. Using only the image centroid positions some cosmic-ray discrimination is also possible. This minimal approach opens the possibility of pushing the analys...
متن کاملImplementation of the Random Forest Method for the Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope MAGIC
The paper describes an application of the tree classification method Random Forest (RF), as used in the analysis of data from the ground-based gamma telescope MAGIC. In such telescopes, cosmic γ-rays are observed and have to be discrimi-
متن کاملThe optical re ector system for the CANGAROO-II imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope
A new imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope with a light-weight re ector has been constructed. Light, robust, and durable mirror facets of containing CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) laminates were developed for the telescope. The re ector has a parabolic shape (f/1.1) with a 30 m surface area which consists of sixty spherical mirror facets. The image size of each mirror facet is 0 .08 ...

متن کاملThe H.E.S.S. Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope Array is currently the most sensitive
The H.E.S.S. Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope Array is currently the most sensitive instrument for Very High Energy (VHE) γ-ray observations in the energy range of about 0.1-10 TeV. During more than two years of operation with the complete 4-telescope array, many galactic and extragalactic VHE γ-ray sources have been discovered. With its superior sensitivity and its large field-of-view c...
