Sipm Arrays Test For The Psct Camera Proposed For The Cta Observatory
NUOVO CIMENTO C-COLLOQUIA AND COMMUNICATIONS IN PHYSICS(2021)
摘要
Arrays of 16 pixels of the Near UltraViolet High-Density third-generation (NUV-HD3) Silicon Photomultipiers (SiPMs) produced by Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK) in collaboration with Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN) have been assembled and characterised to equip the prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Medium-Sized Telescope (pSCT) camera proposed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) Observatory. Each camera module is composed by four 16-pixel optical units coupled with a 64-channel front-end electronics module. The prototype camera has been equipped with 24 of 177 modules and is currently taking data at the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VER-ITAS) Arizona, since January 2019. Nine of the 24 modules mount FBK NUV-HD SiPMs. Latest results on their characterisation and performance will be shown. pSCT was able to detect its first light soon after the inauguration, in January 2019. A dedicated campaign for the Crab Nebula observation conducted in January 2020 led to the Crab detection. Results of this detection will be shown.
