Estimation of the Capabilities of the SPHERE-3 Cherenkov Telescope for Determining the Parameters of the Primary Cosmic Particle

New results of modeling the operation of the new SPHERE-3 Cherenkov telescope are presented. The telescope will be able to detect cosmic particles by direct and reflected Cherenkov light of the extensive air showers (EAS). Dual detection improves the accuracy of determining the parameters of the primary particle. The study is based on the data bank of distributions of the EAS Cherenkov light obtained on the Lomonosov-2 supercomputer. The accuracy of determining the energy and type of the primary particle from the reflected and direct flux of Cherenkov light is estimated.

Abstract

New results of modeling the operation of the new SPHERE-3 Cherenkov telescope are presented. The telescope will be able to detect cosmic particles by direct and reflected Cherenkov light of the extensive air showers (EAS). Dual detection improves the accuracy of determining the parameters of the primary particle. The study is based on the data bank of distributions of the EAS Cherenkov light obtained on the Lomonosov-2 supercomputer. The accuracy of determining the energy and type of the primary particle from the reflected and direct flux of Cherenkov light is estimated.
