Testing ctapipe on measured FACT data — •Noah Biederbeck — TU Dortmund, Germany

The upcoming Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the most sensitive Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope in the coming years.

CTA will eventually consist of more than 100 telescopes build at two sites, on La Palma covering the northern sky and in Chile covering the southern sky. The first telescope, the 23m Large Size Telescope 1, was finished in November 2018.

The low-level analysis software ctapipe is currently in the developement stage and mainly tested on simulated data of the CTA telescopes.

To verify the software, data analysis is performed on data of the First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope. An IACT operating since 2011 next to the LST site at the Roque de los Muchachos on La Palma.
