Commissioning and Preliminary Observation Results of SST-1M presented at TeVPA conference in Chicago

[ Thomas Tavernier (FZU, Prague, Czech Republic), TeVPa 2024 – Chicago, 27. 8. 2024 ] SST-1M is a single-mirror small size Cherenkov telescope prototype developed by a consortium among institutes in Switzerland, Poland, and the Czech Republic. With a 4 meter mirror and a 5.6 m focal length, SST-1Ms have a broad 9 degree field of view and aim to detect gamma rays spanning the energy range of 1 to 300 TeV. The DigiCam camera incorporates a compact Photo-Detector Plane comprising 1296 hexagonal silicon photomultiplier pixels and a fully digital readout and trigger system using a 250 MHz ADC. Two SST-1M...
