The stereoscopic imaging atmospheric Cherenkov technique, developed in the 1980s and 1990s, is now used by a number of existing and planned gamma-ray observatories around the world. It provides the most sensitive view of the very high energy gamma-ray sky (above 30 GeV), coupled with relatively good angular and spectral resolution over a wide field-of-view. This Chapter summarizes the details of the technique, including descriptions of the telescope optical systems and cameras, as well as the most common approaches to data analysis and gamma-ray reconstruction.

Probing the Cosmic Ray Background of Gamma-Ray Astronomy with Hadron Colliders
Only forward neutral pions carrying a large fraction of the cosmic-ray energy mimic gamma-ray showers, and LHCf/RHICf cover the exact pseudorapidity range needed to test the models.
