The TAIGA timing array HiSCORE - first results

2017 
Observations of gamma rays up to several 100 TeV are particularly important to spectrally resolve the cutoff regime of the long-sought Pevatrons, the cosmic-ray PeV accelerators. One component of the TAIGA hybrid detector is the TAIGA-HiSCORE timing array, which currently consists of 28 wide angle (0.6 sr) air Cherenkov timing stations distributed on an area of 0.25 km 2 . The HiSCORE concept is based on (non-imaging) air shower front sampling with Cherenkov light. First results are presented.
