SCIENCE

The preparation of a realistic sky simulation for a data challenge give a unique possibility to investigates significant scientific questions that will be studied with CTA.

In preparing the simulated data, ACDC researchers made an effort to include the state of the art knowledge on the known and predicted TeV sources.

The main topics for the simulation are:

Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN)

Supernova Remnants (SNR)

Gamma Ray Binaries

Pulsar

Blazars

Starburst Galaxy

Spheroidal Galaxies and DM

Diffuse Emission
