CTAO Telescopes (IMAGE)
Caption
Three classes of telescopes are required to cover the full CTAO energy range (20 GeV to 300 TeV). The "Alpha Configuration" details the approved configuration of the telescope arrays at the two sites for the Construction Phase of the CTAO Project. With this configuration, and for its core energy range (100 GeV to 10 TeV), the CTAO is planning 23 Medium-Sized Telescopes (MSTs). Four Large-Sized Telescopes (LSTs) and 37 Small-Sized Telescopes (SSTs) are planned to extend the energy range below 100 GeV and up to 300 TeV, respectively.
