摘要:

对大气层的监测与成像大气切伦科夫望远镜非常相关。恶劣的天气条件(强风、高湿度等)云和气溶胶的存在会影响切伦科夫光的传输,从而影响望远镜的性能。MAGIC协作的大气层校准技术工作组旨在涵盖与大气层监测和校准有关的所有方面。在本文中,我们给出了一个概述的ATCA的目标和活动,其中包括适当的仪器的设置和维护,其数据的正确分析,实现MC研究,并在非最佳大气条件下采取的实际数据的校正。最终目标是减少在确定$γ$射线通量和能量方面的系统不确定性,并通过建立针对实际大气条件的优化数据分析方法来增加望远镜的占空比。

英文摘要:

The monitoring of the atmosphere is very relevant for Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes. Adverse weather conditions (strong wind, high humidity, etc.) may damage the telescopes and must therefore be monitored continuously to guarantee a safe operation, and the presence of clouds and aerosols affects the transmission of the Cherenkov light and consequently the performance of the telescopes. The ATmospheric CAlibration (ATCA) technical working group of the MAGIC collaboration aims to cover all aspects related to atmosphere monitoring and calibration. In this paper we give an overview of the ATCA goals and activities, which include the set-up and maintenance of appropriate instrumentation, proper analysis of its data, the realization of MC studies, and the correction of real data taken under non-optimal atmospheric conditions. The final goal is to reduce the systematic uncertainties in the determination of the $γ$-ray flux and energy, and to increase the duty cycle of the telescopes by establishing optimized data analysis methods specific for real atmospheric conditions.
