CTA From HESS & MAGIC to CTA About 30 sources are now identified as VHE gamma sources. GLAST will see ~3000 of GeV sources around 2010 GLAST will see ~3000 of GeV sources around 2010 Our target in VHE Energy Our target in VHE Energy ~100 VHE sources in 2010 by HESS-II and MAGIC-II ~1000 VHE sources in 2020 by CTA CTA Sensitivity must be 10 times better than HESS, and MAGIC CTA Sensitivity must be 10 times better than HESS, and MAGIC Importance of all sky observatory full sky survey relatively large FOV is favored Extend HESS galactic plane survey to entire sky Extend HESS galactic plane survey to entire sky

CTA Idea of CTA The next generation detector (Observatory) for gamma ray astronomy after HESS and MAGIC Energy range a few 10GeV-100TeV A few 10GeV to see sources in the cosmological distance A few 10GeV to see sources in the cosmological distance 100TeV to understand the origin of galactic cosmic rays 100TeV to understand the origin of galactic cosmic rays ~10 times better sensitivity than HESS, MAGIC Increase number of sources a factor of ~30 Increase number of sources a factor of ~30 All sky observatory North a few 10 GeV – 1TeV North a few 10 GeV – 1TeV ~10 huge telescopes South a few 10 GeV – 100TeV South a few 10 GeV – 100TeV ~10 huge telescopes + ~100 small telescopes Overlap with GLAST mission GLAST Mission 2007-2012+ GLAST Mission 2007-2012+ Budget size ~150MEuro EU will support 80% must be supported by agencies in each country EU will support 80% must be supported by agencies in each country

24
CTA HESS-II and MAGIC-II can be good R&Ds for CTA HESS-II 28m diameter telescope Lower threshold energy In 2008 MAGIC-II 2x17m, High Q.E. detectors Lower threshold energy High Precision In 2007 March 2006
25
CTASummary Now we know about 50 TeV sources in the sky. The physics in TeV gamma ray astronomy is very rich and still there are many open questions. We definitely need CTA for the development of TeV gamma ray astronomy after HESS, MAGIC, VERITAS and CANGAROO. ~1000 sources will be observed in 10-20 years by CTA. All sky observatory is ideal (north & south stations) Maybe two steps construction Maybe two steps construction Multi-wavelength and multi-messenger observation are very important to understand the nature of high energy sources GLAST, IceCube, KM3, Auger, etc.. GLAST, IceCube, KM3, Auger, etc..

CTA Strategy in Low Energy ~10GeV Eth Image quality is limited by the number of photons and air shower fluctuations Increase photo-collection efficiency Increase telescope density (gain x 4) Increase telescope density (gain x 4) ~100m spacing ~50m spacing Many sampling points reduce shower fluctuation effect Increase telescope diameter (gain x 3) Increase telescope diameter (gain x 3) 12m-17m φ 20-30m φ Increase Q.E. of photo-detectors (gain x 3) Increase Q.E. of photo-detectors (gain x 3) Q.E. 20% 60-80% Total gain 30~40 in photo collection efficiency could be realistic 10GeV threshold energy with reasonable sensitivity 10GeV threshold energy with reasonable sensitivity Photon sampling rate: HESS, MAGIC ~ 1/1000 Photon sampling rate in CTA should be ~1/30 (10% mirror area, 50% Q.E.) Significant improvement in data quality intensive M.C. is necessary
31
CTA Strategy in High energy up to 100TeV Extension of the sensitivity up to 100TeV to study galactic cosmic ray source CTA south only Current IACTs’ sensitivity is just limited by the number of gamma events Emax ~10TeV Emax ~100TeV Emax ~10TeV Emax ~100TeV ~10 5 m 2 (300m x 300m) ~10 7 m 2 (3km x 3km) ~10 5 m 2 (300m x 300m) ~10 7 m 2 (3km x 3km)
