The distributed particle detectors and data acquisition modules for Extensive Air Shower measurements at 'HT-KZ' experiment

摘要

"HorizonT-Kazakhstan" (HT-KZ) is an extensive air shower new detector system of a new typeto be constructed at Nazarbayev University (NU), Astana, KZ. It is based on the idea of aprevious generation detector that is located at Tyan-Shan high-altitude Science Station of thePhysical Institute of Russian science academy at approximately 3340 meters above the sea level.It will consist of 8 independent modules distributed on the roofs of NU with 1-2ns timeresolution. The purpose is to register Extensive Air Showers (EAS) coming from a wide rangeof zenith angles. The measurements of the time characteristics of the EAS are to be takensimultaneously at up to eight registration points separated by the distance up to one kilometer.HT-KZ development is very important step in the EAS research area, especially, in the presenceof the last connected discoveries, such as multi-modal events This article presents the currentsystem development state, the R&D work of the system modules using the independent particledetection modules. The distributed DAQ system and event synchronization system progress willbe discussed as well
