Abstract
Abstract
The TAIGA astroparticle observatory is progressing with the
deployment of new detector stations. The Tunka-Grande —
scintillation counter array of the observatory expands with the new
TAIGA-Muon stations. Several simulation studies were conducted for
optimisation of the new station positioning and
performance. Extensive air showers induced by gamma quanta or a
proton in the range from 100 TeV to 1 PeV at a zenith angle of 0°
were used for these studies. Based on the developed simulation, the
capabilities of identification of high energy extensive air showers
were studied. The soil thickness, the detector and station
positions, the lowest measurable energy range of the cosmic rays,
and different methods of air shower identification were
investigated.
