摘要:

切伦科夫望远镜阵列(CTA)是一个未来的伽马射线天文台,计划显着提高当前一代切伦科夫望远镜的灵敏度和精度。天文台将由几十个不同大小的望远镜组成,并配备不同类型的相机。其中,FlashCam相机系统是第一个实现全数字信号处理链的相机系统,该系统允许可跟踪、可配置的触发方案和灵活的信号重建。截至2016年秋季,CTA中型望远镜的原型FlashCam相机接近完成。正在进行的系统测试的初步结果表明,信号链和读出系统超过CTA的要求。使用长期温度循环显示系统的稳定性。

英文摘要:

The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a future gamma-ray observatory that is planned to significantly improve upon the sensitivity and precision of the current generation of Cherenkov telescopes. The observatory will consist of several dozens of telescopes with different sizes and equipped with different types of cameras. Of these, the FlashCam camera system is the first to implement a fully digital signal processing chain which allows for a traceable, configurable trigger scheme and flexible signal reconstruction. As of autumn 2016, a prototype FlashCam camera for the medium-sized telescopes of CTA nears completion. First results of the ongoing system tests demonstrate that the signal chain and the readout system surpass CTA requirements. The stability of the system is shown using long-term temperature cycling.
