Method for Isolating the Light Component of CR Using Cherenkov Telescope Data in the TAIGA Experiment

This paper proposes a method for separation the light component of cosmic rays in the energy range of 200 TeV–20 PeV (the knee region in the PCR spectrum) from hybrid events detected by two Cherenkov setups IACT + HiSCORE in TAIGA experiment. The possibility of such separation is demonstrated using Monte Carlo calculations and the first experimental estimates are made.

Abstract

This paper proposes a method for separation the light component of cosmic rays in the energy range of 200 TeV–20 PeV (the knee region in the PCR spectrum) from hybrid events detected by two Cherenkov setups IACT + HiSCORE in TAIGA experiment. The possibility of such separation is demonstrated using Monte Carlo calculations and the first experimental estimates are made.
