Abstract

New opportunities in science appeared with the latest technology of the 21st century. This paper points to creating a new architecture for detection systems of different characteristics in astrophysics and geophysics using the latest technologies related to multicopter cluster systems, alternative energy sources, cluster technologies, cloud computing and big data. The idea of a quick-deployable scaleable dynamic system of a controlled drone with a small set of different detectors for detecting various components of extensive air showers in cosmic rays and in geophysics is very attractive. Development of this type of new system also allows to give a multiplier effect for the development of various sciences and research methods to observe natural phenomena.

Highlights

  • Cosmic ray studies of extensive air showers (EAS) systems use different detectors with different geometry and sensitivity to the components of the EAS

  • We have proposed the concept of a system with a rapidly deployable detection system architecture

  • This system can be used to measure various characteristics of the EAS Cherenkov radiation using the latest technology related to multicopter systems, alternative energy sources, cluster technologies, cloud computing and big data

Summary

Introduction

Cosmic ray studies of extensive air showers (EAS) systems use different detectors with different geometry and sensitivity to the components of the EAS. For example the size of the Auger installation is 3000 square kilometers and consists of 1600 water Cherenkov detectors. All these settings are collected in stages and initially deployed on a given grid on the earth’s surface and detect the various components of the EAS with different types of detectors. We have proposed the concept of a system with a rapidly deployable detection system architecture. This system can be used to measure various characteristics of the EAS Cherenkov radiation using the latest technology related to multicopter systems, alternative energy sources, cluster technologies, cloud computing and big data
