Description
As a non-imaging wide-angle Cherenkov air shower detector array with
an area of up to 100 km2, HiSCORE (Hundred Square km Cosmic ORigin
Explorer) is built to measure gamma rays and cosmic rays in an
energy range of 10 TeV up to 1EeV. Three stations consisting of light
collector Winston cones equipped with photomultiplier tubes have
already been deployed to Tunka Valley, Russia. The first results and
the most important hardware components are presented on this poster.
