Hadron Rejection in an Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescope Depending on the Mirror Diameter and Camera Pixel Size
摘要
Abstract
The astrophysical experiment TAIGA-10 (Tunka Advanced Instrument for cosmic ray physics and Gamma-ray Astronomy) is planned to extend by mounting new telescopes with improved parameters: a smaller camera pixel size of a larger mirror diameter. The simulation of new and already installed telescopes has been conducted, and expected improvement in the hadron background rejection after transition to smaller pixel sizes and a larger mirror diameter has been quantitatively estimated.
