SCIENCE WITH THE NEW GENERATION OF HIGH ENERGY GAMMA-RAY EXPERIMENTS The Variable Gamma-Ray Sources: Their Identifications and C

Computer Science

Scientific paper

The GLAST Large Area Telescope (LAT) is a high-energy gamma-ray telescope that will be flown in late 2007. The LAT tracker (TKR) consists of an array of tower modules, composed of planes of silicon-strip detectors (SSDs) interleaved with converter tungsten layers. The photon detection is based on the pair conversion process and silicon-strip detectors will reconstruct tracks of electrons and positrons.
The instrument is actually assembled and the full LAT has been tested and integrated at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). Experimental results from the pre-launch cosmic ray data taking will be discussed.
