Optimized Pointing Strategies for Solar Tower ACTs

We discuss simulations of novel heliostat pointing configurations designed to improve the angular and energy resolution of a solar tower wavefront-sampling atmospheric Cherenkov telescope. One such configuration will be tested via observations of …

The VERITAS Prototype

We give an update on the status of the prototype telescope of the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS), a next-generation atmospheric imaging Cerenkov array currently under construction in southern Arizona. VERITAS will …

Using GHz FADCs to Reject Hadrons from STACEE Data

Since March 2002, STACEE has been operating with a 1 GHz flash analog to digital converter (FADC) on each channel of its 64 heliostat detector. Prior to that time, all gamma-ray detections by STACEE relied solely on wavefront timing measurements. …

VHE Observations of BL Lacertae Objects: 1995-2000

The results of observations of 29 BL Lacertae objects taken with the Whipple Observatory 10 m gamma-ray telescope between 1995 and 2000 are presented.

In-Home Respite Care Services Available to Families With Palliative Care Needs in Quebec - Novel Digital Environmental Scan

Background Caregiving dyads in palliative care are confronted with complex care needs. Respite care services can be highly beneficial in alleviating the caregiving burden, supporting survivorship and dying at home. Yet, respite care services are …

MT25 Assessing the Impact of a Patient Portal Application for Cancer Patients on Missed Appointments

Objectives Caregiving dyads in palliative care are confronted with complex care needs. Respite care services can be highly beneficial in alleviating the caregiving burden, supporting survivorship and dying at home. Yet, respite care services are …

Operational Ontology for Oncology (O3) - A Professional Society-Based, Multistakeholder, Consensus-Driven Informatics Standard Supporting Clinical and Research Use of Real-World Data From Patients Treated for Cancer

Purpose The ongoing lack of data standardization severely undermines the potential for automated learning from the vast amount of information routinely archived in electronic health records (EHRs), Radiation Oncology Information Systems (ROIS), …
