For the current generation of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs), with their large mirrors and their cameras with fine segmentation of photodetectors, the focusing capability is a relevant issue. The optical system of an IACT…
Imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs) detect extended air showers (EASs) generated when very-high-energy (VHE) gamma rays or cosmic rays interact with the Earth's atmosphere. Cherenkov photons produced during an EAS are captured…
The Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (IACT) works by imaging the very short flash of Cherenkov radiation generated by the cascade of relativistic charged particles produced when a TeV gamma ray strikes the atmosphere. This energetic…
We report on the successful detection of extensive air showers (EAS) generated by ultra-high-energy cosmic rays using a small-aperture fluorescence telescope (FT) deployed at the Mount Aragats high-altitude research station. The instrument…
The analysis of ring images produced by muons in an Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (IACT) provides a powerful and precise method to calibrate the IACT optical throughput and monitor its optical point-spread function (PSF). First…
Fourier transform methods are used to analyze functions and data sets to provide frequencies, amplitudes, and phases of underlying oscillatory components. Fast Fourier transform (FFT) methods offer speed advantages over evaluation of…
The detailed simulation of extended air showers (EAS) and their emission of Cherenkov and fluorescence light requires increasing computation time and storage volume with increasing energy of the primary particle. Given these limitations, it…
The Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Technique (IACT) is unusual in astronomy as the atmosphere actually forms an intrinsic part of the detector system, with telescopes indirectly detecting very high energy particles by the generation and…
New deep learning techniques present promising new analysis methods for Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) such as the upcoming Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). In particular, the use of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs)…
We present a new paradigm for the simulation of arrays of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) which overcomes limitations of current approaches. Up to now, all major IACT experiments rely on the same Monte-Carlo simulation…
The effective observation time of Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) plays an important role in the detection of gamma-ray sources, especially when the expected flux is low. This time is strongly limited by the atmospheric conditions.…
Image computation is a fundamental tool for performance assessment of astronomical instrumentation, usually implemented by Fourier transform techniques. We review the numerical implementation, evaluating a direct implementation of the…
Imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope (IACT) arrays such as VERITAS are used for ground-based very high-energy gamma-ray astronomy. This is accomplished by the detection and analysis of the Cherenkov light produced by gamma-ray-initiated…
Telescopes based on the imaging atmospheric Cherenkov technique (IACTs) detect images of the atmospheric showers generated by gamma rays and cosmic rays as they are absorbed by the atmosphere. The much more frequent cosmic-ray events form…

A new method of shower-image analysis is presented which appears very powerful as applied to those Cherenkov Imaging Telescopes with very high definition imaging capability. It provides hadron rejection on the basis of a single cut on the…
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy aims at reconstructing the energy and direction of gamma rays from the extensive air showers they initiate in the atmosphere. Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACT) collect the Cherenkov light…
Fourier-transform spectroscopy (FTS) has been widely used as a standard analytical technique over the past half-century. FTS is a simple and robust autocorrelation-based technique that is compatible with both temporally coherent and…
Fourier transform (FT) spectroscopy is a versatile technique for studying the infrared (IR) optical response of solid-, liquid-, and gas-phase samples. In standard FT-IR spectrometers, a light beam passing through a Michelson interferometer…
The operation of a small-size Cherenkov gamma-ray telescope TAIGA-IACT with camera on SiPMs OnSemi MicroFJ-60035 has been modelled by multiparticle Monte Carlo (MC) methods. The model implies that telescope camera is equipped with two…
