Measurements of some Detector Components of Air Cherenkov Telescopes for ground-based Gamma-ray
Astronomy — •Cornelia Schultz — Universität Padua & INFN, Padua, Italien
High energy ground-based gamma-ray astronomy uses mostly large size air Cherenkov telescopes. Here it well be reported on studies of telescope components for improving current and future telescopes. In detail, the report will be on reflectivity measurements of the 1 m2 mirror panels of the MAGIC II telescope and on optical crosstalk in Geigermode avalanche photodetectors.
