TITLE : | Atmospheric Monitoring system for Telescope Array Experiment |
ABSTRACT : | |
| For the air fluorescence experiments, like Telescope Array and HiRes,
we use the atmosphere as a part of detector. Atmosphere is
something like a target, or light guide. In order to estimate the
primary energy of cosmic rays, the measurement of the light
transmittance in the atmosphere is essential point. For this reason,
the atmospheric monitoring system is one of the most important
calibration equipments in these experiments. We will report the current
status of the development of the atmospheric monitor system. Based on
the observational results with these detectors, we will discuss
atmospheric monitor methods.
