TAIGA -- an advanced hybrid detector complex for astroparticle physics and high energy gamma-ray astronomy
The physical motivations, present status, main results in study of cosmic
rays and in the field of gamma-ray astronomy as well future plans of the
TAIGA-1 (Tunka Advanced Instrument for cosmic ray physics and Gamma Astronomy)
project are presented. The TAIGA observatory addresses ground-based gamma-ray
astronomy and astroparticle physics at energies from a few TeV to several PeV,
as well as cosmic ray physics from 100 TeV to several EeV. The pilot TAIGA-1
complex is located in the Tunka valley, ~50 km west from the southern tip of
the lake Baikal.Comment: Submission to SciPost Phys. Proc., 10 pages, 2 figure
