      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2013)
      The Luiza analysis framework for GLORIA is based on the Marlin package, which was originally developed for data analysis in the new High Energy Physics (HEP) project, International Linear Collider (ILC). The HEP experiments ...
    • On Some Statistical Properties of GRBs with Measured Redshifts Having Peaks in Optical Light Curves 

      Autor: Beskin , Grigorii; Greco , Giuseppe; Oganesyan , Gor; Karpov , Sergey
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2013)
      We studied the subset of optical light curves of gamma-ray bursts with measured redshifts and well-sampled R band data that have clearly detected peaks. Among 43 such events, 11 are promptoptical peaks (P), coincident with ...
    • Photometric Analysis of Pi of the Sky Data

      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2013)
      Two fully automatic Pi of the Sky detectors with a large field of view, located in Spain (INTA) and in Chile (SPDA) observe the sky in search of rare optical phenomena, and also collect observations which include many kinds ...
    • Status and Perspectives of the Mini-MegaTORTORA Wide-field Monitoring System with High Temporal Resolution 

      Autor: Karpov , Sergey; Beskin , Grigory; Bondar , Sergey; Perkov , Alexey; Ivanov , Evgeny; Guarnieri , Adriano; Bartolini , Corrado; Greco , Giuseppe; Shearer , Andy; Sasyuk , Vyacheslav
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2013)
      Here we briefly summarize our long-term experience of constructing and operating wide-field monitoring cameras with sub-second temporal resolution to look for optical components of GRBs, fast-moving satellites and meteors. ...
    • Study of Silicon Photomultipliers for the GRIPS Calorimeter Module 

      Autor: Ulyanov , Alexei; Hanlon , Lorraine; McBreen , Sheila; Foley , Suzanne
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2013)
      GRIPS is a proposed gamma-ray (200 keV to 80 MeV) astronomy mission, which incorporates a pair-creation and Compton scattering telescope, along with X-ray and infrared telescopes. It will carry out a sensitive all-sky ...
    • The Czech Contribution to Future Large X-Ray Astronomy Telescopes: Recent Progress 

      Autor: Hudec , René; Pína , Ladislav; Inneman , Adolf; Černá , Daniela; Maršíková , Veronika; Tichý , Vladimír; Míka , Martin
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2013)
      We briefly review the recent status of the Czech contribution to future space X-ray astronomy missions with emphasis on the development of new technologies and test samples of X-ray mirrors with precise surfaces based on ...
    • The Point Spread Function Variations inside Wide-field Astonomical Images 

      Autor: Anisimova , Elena; Bednář , Jan; Páta , Petr
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2013)
      The Point Spread Function (PSF) of the astronomical imaging system is usually approximated by a Gaussian or Moffat function. For simplification, the astronomical imaging system is considered to be time and space invariant. ...
