Description
The installation of new EAS Cherenkov array Tunka-133, with about 1 km2 geometric acceptance area, was finished in the in October 2009. The array will permit a detailed long-term study of the cosmic ray energy spectrum and mass composition in the energy range of 10^15 - 10^18 eV with a unique and more reliable method. We describe the array construction and data acquisition system, present preliminary results and plans for the future development.
