Abstract
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the new generation of ground observatories for the detection of very high energy γ-rays. The Italian Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN) is developing a possible solution for the Cherenkov photon cameras based on Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM) detectors sensitive to near ultraviolet energies. This contribution reviews the procedures for the assembly of 4×4 SiPM modules intended to equip a possible upgrade of the focal camera of the Schwarzschild-Couder optics Medium Size Telescope (SCT) proposed for CTA.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
