论文摘要

望远镜阵列(TA)是北半球最大的杂化宇宙射线检测器,它观察到能量范围从2 PEV到100 EEV的主要颗粒。主TA检测器由1.2公里间距正方形网格上的507个塑料闪烁计数器组成,在三个站点上俯瞰着表面检测器阵列上方的天空的荧光检测器。 TA低能扩展(Tale)混合探测器由十个荧光望远镜组成,80个具有400 m和600 m间距的填充表面探测器,自2018年完成以来,它一直在提供稳定的观察结果。税收4,该税收4,该计划是一项Quadruple的计划,这是TA的检测区域的四倍。大约一半的计划探测器已被部署,目前的税务4继续作为混合检测器稳定运行。我回顾了TA实验的当前状态以及有关宇宙射线各向异性,质量组成和能量谱的最新结果。

The Telescope Array (TA) is the largest hybrid cosmic ray detector in the Northern Hemisphere, which observes primary particles in the energy range from 2 PeV to 100 EeV. The main TA detector consists of 507 plastic scintillation counters on a 1.2-km spacing square grid and fluorescence detectors at three stations overlooking the sky above the surface detector array. The TA Low energy Extension (TALE) hybrid detectors, which consists of ten fluorescence telescopes, and 80 infill surface detectors with 400-m and 600-m spacing, has continued to provide stable observations since its construction completion in 2018. The TAx4, a plan to quadruple the detection area of TA is also ongoing. About half of the planned detectors have been deployed, and the current TAx4 continues to operate stably as a hybrid detector. I review the present status of the TA experiment and the recent results on the cosmic-ray anisotropy, mass composition and energy spectrum.
