چکیده
In 2000 CANGAROO-II 7m telescope has been improved to a 10m telescope, and the CANGAROO-III project has been begun. The CANGAROO-III is a project to study celestial gamma rays above 0.1 TeV with an array of four 10m Imaging Air Cerenkov T elescopes (IACTs) in the southern hemisphere. Here we report on the status of CANGAROO-III project including the observations using the rst telescope

متن کاملStatus of the CANGAROO-III Project
The CANGAROO-III project, a system of four 10 m telecopes dedicated for gamma-ray astrophysics, has started in 1999 and is expected to complete in 2004 in Woomera, South Australia. We report the construction work during the first year, which includes the completion of the first 10 m telescope built as a 7 m telescope in 1999, and the work in progess to increase the performance by constructing t...
متن کاملCANGAROO Project for High-Energy Gamma-Ray Astrophysics
Astrophyisical motivations, recent status and results from the international CANGAROO project in Woomera, South Australia are described. Since 1990, with ground-based gamma-ray telecopes using the imaging Cherenkov technique, we are exploring the highenergy phenomena in the Universe and providing new insights to active and extreme astrophysical objects by its observational data at the highest e...
