Description
The aim of the TAIGA (Tunka Advanced Instrument for cosmic ray physics and Gamma Astronomy) is to construct in the Tunka Valley (50 km from Lake Baikal) a complex, hybrid array for multi–TeV gamma-ray astronomy and CR studies. The array will consist of a wide angle Cherenkov array - Tunka-HiSCORE with ~3 km2 area, a net of IACT telescopes and muon detectors with total area of up to 2000 m2. We present the current status of the array construction, sensitivity to local sources of gamma-rays and first results from operation of the array prototype.
