摘要

我们提出了一种利用切伦科夫望远镜重建电子在阵雨中的纵剖面的方法。我们展示了一组望远镜收集的切伦科夫光如何作为大气深度的函数转换为电子的数量。通过气淋和简化的望远镜模拟对该方法进行了验证。对流星雨具有最大电子数(Xmax)深度的重建，开启了用切伦科夫望远镜在10到100 TeV能量范围内研究宇宙射线组成的可能性。

Cosmic-ray measurements with an array of Cherenkov telescopes using reconstruction of longitudinal profiles of air showers

We present a method to reconstruct the longitudinal profile of electrons in showers using Cherenkov telescopes. We show how the Cherenkov light collected by an array of telescopes can be transformed into the number of electrons as a function of atmospheric depth. This method is validated using air shower and simplified telescope simulations. The reconstruction of the depth in which the shower has the maximum number of electrons (X $_{\max}$ ) opens the possibility of cosmic ray composition studies with Cherenkov telescopes in the energy range from 10 to 100 TeV.
