Gamma-Ray Line Astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2004
Gamma-ray lines from radioactive isotopes, ejected into interstellar space by cosmic nucleosynthesis events, are observed with new space telescopes. The Compton Observatory had provided a sky survey for the isotopes 56Co, 22Na, 44Ti, and 26Al, detecting ...

Gamma ray astronomy with IceCube [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2003
We demonstrate that the South Pole kilometer-scale neutrino observatory IceCube can detect multi-TeV gamma rays continuously over a large fraction of the southern sky. While not as sensitive as pointing atmospheric Cerenkov telescopes, IceCube can roughly match the sensitivity of Milagro.

Gamma-Ray Astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 1982
Cosmic gamma rays, the physical processes responsible for their production and the astrophysical sites from which they were seen are reported. The bulk of the observed gamma ray emission is in the photon energy range from about 0.1 MeV to 1 GeV, where observations are carried out above the atmosphere.

Gamma Ray Astronomy with ARGO-YBJ [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
ARGO‐YBJ is the first EAS detector combining a very high mountain altitude (4300 m a.s.1.) to a “full coverage” detection surface. These features allow ARGO‐YBJ to work with an energy threshold as low as a few hundreds GeV. The high duty cycle and the large field of view (∼2 sr) make ARGO‐YBJ suitable to monitor the gamma ray sky, searching for unknown

The MEGA Advanced Compton Telescope Project [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The goal of the Medium Energy Gamma-ray Astronomy (MEGA) telescope is to improve sensitivity at medium gamma-ray energies (0.4-50 MeV) by at least an order of magnitude over that of COMPTEL. This will be achieved with a new compact design that allows for

Status of the VERITAS Observatory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
VERITAS, an Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (IACT) system for gammma-ray astronomy in the GeV-TeV range, has recently completed its first season of observations with a full array of four telescopes.

GammaLearn - first steps to apply Deep Learning to the Cherenkov Telescope Array data [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2019
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next generation of ground-based gamma-ray telescopes for gamma-ray astronomy. Two arrays will be deployed composed of 19 telescopes in the Northern hemisphere and 99 telescopes in the Southern hemisphere. Due to

Astrophysics with High Energy Gamma Rays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Recent results, the present status and the perspectives of high energy gamma-ray astronomy are described. Since the satellite observations by the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory and its precursor missions have been reviewed extensively, emphasis is on the ...

A Stochastic Approach to Reconstruct Gamma-Ray-burst Light Curves

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), as they are observed at high redshift ( z = 9.4), are vital to cosmological studies and investigating Population III stars. To tackle these studies, we need correlations among relevant GRB variables with the requirement of small ...
