Characterisation & Quantification: Calibrating the Cherenkov Telescope Array

切伦科夫望远镜阵列是下一代地面伽玛射线望远镜阵列，将为我们提供前所未有的灵敏度和能量/空间分辨率。然而，它也会带来新的校准挑战。该博士项目将为解决这些校准挑战做出重大贡献。具体而言，该学生将对CTA小型望远镜的相机闪光灯校准系统进行表征，并有助于改进无人机校准技术。还将开展探索性工作，以调查这些校准系统是否可以适用于其他天文粒子实验。

The Cherenkov Telescope Array is the next generation of ground-based gamma-ray telescope array, and will afford us unprecedented sensitivity and energy/spatial resolution. However, it will also introduce new calibration challenges. This PhD project will make significant contributions to addressing these calibration challenges. Specifically, the student will characterize the camera flasher calibration systems of CTA's small-sized-telescopes, as well as contribute to refining the UAV calibration technique. Exploratory work will also occur to investigate whether these calibration systems can be adapted for other Astro particle experiments.
