  • PACT results on very high energy g-ray emission from CRAB pulsar 
    Sripathi Acharya, B; Vishwanath, P. R; Bhat, P. N; Chitnis, V. R; Majumdar, P; Rahman, M. A; Singh, B. B (International Union of Pure and Applied Physics, 2003-07)
    The data taken on the Crab pulsar by the recently commissioned array of ˇ Cerenkov telescopes at Pachmarhi using the wave front sampling technique have been analyzed. The phasograms show significant excess of events at the ...
  • Performance studies of the PACT experiment 
    Vishwanath, P. R; Acharya, B. S; Bhat, P. N; Chitnis, V. R; Majumdar, P; Rahman, M. A; Singh, B. B (Astronomical Society of India, 2002)
    Monte Carlo calculations have been done to understand various characteristics like the energy threshold, collection area etc of the recently commissioned PACT. The energy threshold of the array for gamma rays is found to ...
  • Photometry of X-ray selected quasars from Einstein Medium Sensitivity Survey 
    Singh, K. P; Bhat, P. N; Prabhu, T. P (Astronomical Society of India, 1993)
    We present a few photometric measurements of quasars in the Einstein Medium Sensitivity Survey (EMSS). The measurements are a part of an ongoing program of CCD photometry of quasars in the southern sky and are based on ...
  • A possible high altitude high energy gamma ray observatory in India 
    Cowsik, R; Bhat, P. N; Chitnis, V. R; Acharya, B. S; Vishwanath, P. R (Copernicus Gesellschaft, 2001-08)
    Recently an Indian Astronomical Observatory has been set up at Hanle (32° 46 4 6 N , 78° 57 5 1 E , 4515m amsl) situated in the high altitude cold desert in the Himalayas. The Observatory has 2-m aperture optical-infrared ...
  • Preliminary results on the flux of TeV g-rays from crab system obtained with the PACT at Pachmarhi 
    Sripathi Acharya, B; Bhat, P. N; Chitnis, V. R; Majumdar, P; Rahman, M. A; Singh, B. B; Vishwanath, P. R (International Union of Pure and Applied Physics, 2003-07)
    We have observed the Crab system (Nebula and Pulsar) and the corresponding background regions during many clear nights in the years 1999-2002 ˇ using the atmospheric Cerenkov array at Pachmarhi, PACT. Preliminary results ...
  • Status of HAGAR, the high altitude gamma ray observatory at Hanle 
    Chitnis, V. R; Acharya, B. S; Bhat, P. N; Cowsik, R; Prabhu, T. P; Srinivasan, R; Srivatsan, R; Vishwanath, P. R (Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, 2005)
    A 7 telescope array is planned to be constructed at Hanle in the Himalayas at an altitude of about 4200m above mean sea level for detecting celestial gamma-rays. The atmospheric Cerenkov light pool created by the ...
  • Surface photometry of ellipticals: Radio and cluster galaxies 
    Singh, K. P; Bhat, P. N; Prabhu, T. P; Kembhavi, A. K (Astronomical Society of India, 1993)
    Broad-band surface photometry in V, R and I colors is presented for three elliptical galaxies immersed in hot intracluster gas emitting X-rays due to thermal bremsstrahlung. The galaxies are (1) a cD galaxy, and (2) a radio ...
  • TeV Gamma-ray flares from Mkn 421 detected by the pachmarhi array of Cverenkov Telescopes 
    Bhat, P. N; Acharya, B. S; Chitnis, V. R; Majumdar, P; Rahman, M. A; Singh, B. B; Vishwanath, P. R (Astronomical Society of India, 2002)
    Pachmarhi Array of Cverenkov Telescopes (PACT), based on wavefront sampling technique, has been used for detecting TeV gamma rays from galactic and extra-galactic ?-ray sources. The Blaar, Mkn 421 was one such extra-galactic ...
  • Very high energy gamma rays from geminga pulsar 
    Vishwanath, P. R; Sripathi Acharya, B; Bhat, P. N; Chitnis, V. R (International Union of Pure and Applied Physics, 2005)
