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.

Investigating the region of 3C 397 in High Energy Gamma rays [PDF]
, 2017 We investigate the supernova remnant (SNR) 3C 397 and its neighboring pulsar PSR J1906+0722 in high energy gamma rays by using nearly six years of archival data of {\it Large Area Telescope} on board {\it Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope} (Fermi-LAT). The

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 ...
