Abstract
The main goal of the TUS experiment was to search for and study ultra high-energy cosmic rays with energy of \(E>70\) EeV. At the same time, the TUS detector registered several dozen of unusual events, the origin of which is unclear. Atmospheric gamma-ray bursts (TGF and TGE) are considered as their possible sources. In this work, anomalous events are used to calibrate the TUS photodetector.
期刊介绍:
Physics of Atomic Nuclei is a journal that covers experimental and theoretical studies of nuclear physics: nuclear structure, spectra, and properties; radiation, fission, and nuclear reactions induced by photons, leptons, hadrons, and nuclei; fundamental interactions and symmetries; hadrons (with light, strange, charm, and bottom quarks); particle collisions at high and superhigh energies; gauge and unified quantum field theories, quark models, supersymmetry and supergravity, astrophysics and cosmology.
