Design concepts for the Cherenkov Telescope Array CTA: An advanced facility for ground-based high-energy gamma-ray astronomy

Marcos Daniel Actis, +685 more
TL;DR: The ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has had a major breakthrough with the impressive results obtained using systems of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes as mentioned in this paper, which is an international initiative to build the next generation instrument, with a factor of 5-10 improvement in sensitivity in the 100 GeV-10 TeV range and the extension to energies well below 100GeV and above 100 TeV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of Pulsed Gamma Rays Above 100 GeV from the Crab Pulsar

E. Aliu, +94 more
- 07 Oct 2011 - 
TL;DR: This detection constrains the mechanism and emission region of gamma-ray radiation in the pulsar’s magnetosphere and requires that these gamma rays be produced more than 10 stellar radii from the neutron star.
Journal ArticleDOI

DISCOVERY OF TeV GAMMA-RAY EMISSION FROM TYCHO’S SUPERNOVA REMNANT

V. A. Acciari, +84 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the discovery of TeV gamma-ray emission from the Type Ia supernova remnant (SNR) G120.4, known as Tycho's SNR.
Journal ArticleDOI

Constraints on cosmic rays, magnetic fields, and dark matter from gamma-ray observations of the coma cluster of galaxies with veritas and fermi

T. Arlen, +83 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the gamma-ray upper limits of the Coma galaxy cluster with the VERITAS array of imaging Cerenkov telescopes, with complementing Fermi Large Area Telescope observations at GeV energies, were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

VERITAS deep observations of the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Segue 1

E. Aliu, +92 more
- 05 Mar 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the VERITAS array of Cherenkov telescopes has carried out a deep observational program on the nearby dwarf spheroidal galaxy Segue 1, and upper limits on the integrated flux are derived.
