Monte Carlo studies of the GCT for the Cherenkov Telescope Array and the search for VHE AGN using cluster analysis

The future ground based gamma-ray observatory, the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA), will soon enter its construction phase. This work therefore looks into providing a better model of one of the small size telescopes, the Gamma Cherenkov Telescope (GCT), for input into Monte Carlo simulations. Evalua...
