DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Martin Tluczykont ()\nTAIGA (Tunka Advanced Instrume
 nt for Gamma-ray and cosmic ray Astrophysics) aims at covering the TeV to 
 PeV energy range\, where the long-sought Pevatrons can be detected. To thi
 s end\, TAIGA is implementing a hybrid detection technique for Extensive A
 ir Showers (EAS) from the TeV to PeV energy range with good spectral resol
 ution.  Currently the hybrid TAIGA detector combines two wide angle shower
  front Cherenkov light sampling timing arrays (HiSCORE and Tunka-133)\, tw
 o ~ 4m class\, ~10° aperture Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) and
  ~ 240 m² surface and underground charged particle detector stations.  Ou
 r goal is to introduce a new hybrid reconstruction technique\, combining t
 he good angular and shower core resolution of HiSCORE with the gamma-hadro
 n separation power of the imaging telescopes. This approach allows to maxi
 mize the effective area and simultaneously to reach a good gamma-hadron se
 paration at low energies (few TeV). At higher energies\, muon detectors ar
 e planned to enhance gamma-hadron separation.  During the commissioning ph
 ase of the first and second IACT\, several sources were observed. First de
 tections of known sources with the first telescope show the functionality 
 of the TAIGA IACTs. Here\, the status of the TAIGA experiment will be pres
 ented\, along with first results from the current configuration.\n\nhttps:
