Název v původním jazyce

Observation of Active Galactic Nuclei with the Large-Sized Telescope prototype of the Cherenkov Telescope Array

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the next generation gamma-ray observatory. It will consist of three different sizes of telescopes, with a collective improvement of about an order of magnitude in sensitivity, compared with the current generation gamma-ray telescopes. Large-Sized Telescopes (LSTs) will be the most sensitive at energies from tens of GeV up to a few TeVs, and will be the best suited to observe gamma-ray sources such as Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). The first Large-Sized Telescope prototype (LST-1), inaugurated in 2018 and currently in commissioning phase, has accumulated more than one thousand hours of data to date. From 2020 to 2022, we have detected various gamma-ray sources, and prominent among them are several well-known AGN, like Mrk 421, Mrk 501, 1ES 1959+650, 1ES 0647+250, PG 1553+113, etc. We report on light curves and energy spectra reconstructed out of these observations down to energies of tens of GeV, which is very close to the energy threshold of LST-1.
