MAGIC is a system of two 17-m diameter Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes, located at an altitude of 2200 m in the Observatorio Roque de los Muchachos on the Canary island of La Palma. MAGIC provides a broad energy coverage, detecting gamma rays from 50 GeV and up to 100 TeV.
A careful strategy of alert follow-ups from other facilities and the fast reposition of the telescopes as well...
The High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) is an hybrid array of five imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes located in the Khomas Highlands of Namibia to study gamma-ray emission in the energy range from several ten GeV up to several ten TeV. Started 20 years ago, stereoscopic observations provide an unprecedented view of a variety of astrophysical objects, from pulsars and supernova...
The Large-Sized Telescopes (LSTs) will be one of three telescope types composing the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). LSTs will dominate the CTA performance at the lowest gamma-ray energies, especially between 20 GeV and ∼150 GeV, thanks to the tessellated parabolic mirror of 23 m diameter and the ultrafast imagining camera with 4.5 degrees field of view consisting of 1855 high efficiency...
The detection of Gravitational Waves emitted during the merging phase of compact binary objects to stellar-mass Black Holes by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration constitute major achieve-ments of Modern Science. These discoveries require further investigations to answer critical questions about the population density and the formation process of the binary system. These investigations also...
