Centre of Expertise — Gamma-rays
The centre includes experts from worldwide recognized institutes in the field with a deep expertise in observation set up and data analysis from high-energy and very-high energy facilities (satellites and ground based Cherenkov telescopes). ACME has two of the existing ground-based gamma-ray facilities, MAGIC and H.E.S.S. as partners contributing both to TA and VA, and also the upcoming next generation VHE facility, the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO). The JCE-GaHE/VHE will also benefit from the expertise on high-energy gamma-ray astronomy, and specifically on Agile and Fermi-LAT. The centre will provide dedicated expert support on:
- High-energy emitting sources and their detection perspectives
- Data analysis and results interpretation
- Multiwavelength/multimessenger support
- Cherenkov Detection technique details
