The ASTRI Project, led by the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF), is developing a nine-telescope array for very high-energy gamma-ray astronomy in the 1–200 TeV range, known as the ASTRI Mini-Array, which is currently being installed at the Teide Observatory in Tenerife. A key milestone was the ASTRI-Horn telescope, a prototype of a compact aplanatic dual-mirror imaging...
The CTAO (Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory) is working to establish itself as the largest gamma-ray astronomy observatory through a network of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes distributed across two sites. The North site already has operational telescopes, while the South site is set to commence installation within the next year. This ambitious project is driven by a large...
