Description

The CTA is a big international project that facilitates the extensive array of imaging Cherenkov telescope telescopes in two sites, Paranal in Chile and La Palma in Spain, to observe the high energy gamma rays sky in the all-sky with high sensitivity from 20GeV to 300TeV. We will discuss the project and three types of telescopes that allow the coverage of a wide energy range. Especially the construction of Large Size Telescopes in La Palma is progressing fast, and the first telescope is already in scientific operation since 2020; the preliminary results will be presented.
