Status of the technologies for the production of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) mirrors
(SPIE, 2013-09)
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 comprise several tens of Imaging Atmospheric ...
Overview of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Receiver, Instrumentation, and Telescope Systems
(2011)
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope was designed to measure small-scale anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background and detect galaxy clusters through the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect. The instrument is located on Cerro Toco ...
On-site mirror facet condensation measurements for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
(Elsevier Science, 2016-06)
The Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Technique (IACT) has provided very important discoveries in Very High Energy (VHE) γ-ray astronomy for the last two decades, being exploited mainly by experiments such as H.E.S.S., MAGIC ...
Blazars in the Fermi era: The ovro 40 m telescope monitoring program
(2011)
The Large Area Telescope (LAT) aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope provides an unprecedented opportunity to study gamma-ray blazars. To capitalize on this opportunity, beginning in late 2007, about a year before the ...
Exploration of Southern Sky with Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment (ASTE)
(Pfalzner, S.Kramer, C., 2004)
The Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment (ASTE) is a joint project between Japan and Chile to install and operate a 10 m high precision telescope for exploration of the Southern sky at submillimeter wavelengths. Due ...
Design concepts for the Cherenkov Telescope Array CTA: an advanced facility for ground-based high-energy gamma-ray astronomy
(SpringerDordrecht, 2011-12)
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has had a major breakthrough with the impressive results obtained using systems of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has a huge potential in ...
Drone-based polarization calibration source for mm-wave telescopes
(IEEE, 2021)
To probe alternative cosmologies, future CMB experiments will require an exquisite absolute polarization angle calibration. The scarce number natural polarized calibrators makes artificial alternatives appealing. Moreover, ...
Percutaneous endoscopic retrieval of gizzard foreign body in a goose using an operative telescope
(2017-01-01)
Background: Foreign bodies are most commonly diagnosed in stomach (proventriculus and gizzard) of galliformes birds and waterfowl. Endoscopyis routinely used to assess birds' respiratory, gastrointestinal and urogenital ...
