| Popis: |
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a project to build a new generation ground-based gammaray observatory. The FRAM – F(/Ph)otometric Robotic Atmospheric Monitor – is a device, which can provide it with the Vertical Aerosol Optical Depth (VAOD) maps in the field of view of the CTA in almost real time (delay in minutes). The FRAM is a small fast robotic astronomical telescope with a large field of view and a sensitive CCD camera. It uses stellar photometry to measure atmospheric extinction across the field of view and uses it to calculate the VAOD. In this contribution, results of first few months of operations of the prototype and outlook for deployment at the CTA site will be presented. |
