Stereo performance of SST-1M at different altitudes

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The SST-1M telescopes are a pair of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) that have been operating at the Ondřejov Observatory (510m a.s.l.) in the Czech Republic since 2022. Optimized for detecting gamma rays in the energy range 1-300 TeV, they are capable of performing both mono and stereo observations. Despite challenging atmospheric conditions, SST-1M has successfully detected several galactic and extragalactic gamma-ray sources with energies reaching up to 200 TeV during its ongoing commissioning. In this study, we analyze the performance of the SST-1M telescopes at different locations to assess the impact of altitude and relative telescope spacing on their physics performance. The low-altitude site at 510m a.s.l. has already been investigated using both Monte Carlo simulations and real data. For comparison, we selected an intermediate-altitude site at 1420m a.s.l. corresponding to Pampa Amarilla in Argentina and a high-altitude site at 4270m a.s.l. corresponding to Hanle in India – both of which offer favorable astronomical conditions.
