... Programme . ... Abstract: Centaurus A is the first system in which direct evidence for a strong shock associated with radio-lobe expansion has been found, and is the nearest and most dramatic example of a jet / environment interaction. ... I will discuss the implications of these results for particle acceleration at the shock, for Centaurus A as a source of TeV radiation and UHECRs, and for shock heating in nearby and more distant galaxies. go back . ...

Direct Electron Imaging Using Back Thinned CCDs . ... A proximity focused Gen III image intensifier has been built using a back illuminated 512 x 512 CCD in place of the phosphor screen. Signal to noise, spatial resolution, minimum resolvable signal and life are discussed. ... Very low light level imaging is driven by the need for high quantum efficiency detection of single photons at the highest possible speed and the highest spatial resolution. ...
