Fully depleted charge‐coupled device design and technology development
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 8-9, October-November 2023., 2023 Abstract We describe the advancement of fully depleted charge‐coupled device (CCD) technology for scientific applications. Recent efforts on 650–725 μ$$ \mu $$m‐thick CCDs for direct dark‐matter and radiation detection with single‐electron sensitivity are described, as well as the technology transfer of the fully depleted CCD technology to 200 mm‐wafer

Characterization of Thunderstorm Cells Producing Observable Terrestrial Gamma‐Ray Flashes
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 128, Issue 17, 16 September 2023., 2023 Abstract The meteorological conditions required for the production of Terrestrial Gamma‐ray Flashes (TGFs) are not well understood. Particularly, the link between TGF production, meteorology, and weather severity is poorly characterized with most works focusing on only a small set of TGF events or isolated storms.

Fast γ-ray Variability: A Common Feature and Powerful Probe for Jetted AGNs
Galaxies, 2018 Among the highly dynamical non-thermal universe, flashes of γ-ray photons from jets in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are always attractive. Not only are they extraordinary observational phenomena, but they also become powerful probes of the jets ...

Recent Results from the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope [PDF]
Proceedings of 35th International Conference of High Energy Physics — PoS(ICHEP 2010), 2011 The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, formerly named GLAST, is a mission in low-Earth orbit to observe gamma rays from the cosmos in the broad energy range from 20 MeV to >300 GeV, with supporting observations of gamma-ray bursts from 8 keV to 30 MeV. The telescope far surpasses previous generations in its ability to detect and localize faint gamma-ray ...
