Analysis and Simulation of the Pi of the Sky Detector Response

Analysis and Simulation of the Pi of the Sky Detector Response

The Pi of the Sky project observes optical flashes of astronomical origin and other light sources variable on short timescales, down to tens of seconds. We search mainly for optical emissions of Gamma Ray Bursts, but also for variable stars, blazars, etc. Precise photometry with a very large field o...
