宽视场（FoV）是未来地基γ射线天文学最重要的目标之一，对于详细研究孤立事件的时间和光谱特征尤其重要，例如γ射线爆发（GRB）、耀变体等高度可变的源或引力波（GW）的潜在极高能（VHE）电磁对应物。基于折射光学并在极高海拔天文台运行的大气切伦科夫望远镜（ACT）可能是一个合适的解决方案。在本研究中，我们报告了基于折射凸水透镜的大 FoV ACT 原型的特征和性能。结合水透镜望远镜和大范围空气簇射（EAS）阵列，提出了一种估计空气簇射到达方向的重建方法。空气簇射的切伦科夫图像是通过具有 48 像素、视场角为 15°× 13°、中值角分辨率～ 0. 9° 的水透镜原型获得的。
A wide field-of-view (FoV) is one of the most important goals for future ground-based γ-ray astronomy, and it is especially crucial for detailed studies of temporal and spectral characteristics of solitary events, such as γ-ray bursts (GRBs), highly variable sources like blazars, or potential very high energy (VHE) electromagnetic counterparts of gravitational waves (GWs). Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (ACT) based on refractive optics and operated at a very high altitude observatory may be an appropriate solution. In the present study, we report the characteristics and performance of a large FoV ACT prototype based on a refractive convex water lens. A reconstruction method for estimating the arrival direction of the air shower was developed by combining the water-lens telescope and the Extensive Air Shower (EAS) array. The Cherenkov images of the air showers were obtained by a water-lens prototype with 48 pixels, an FoV of 15°× 13°, and a median angular resolution of∼ 0. 9°.
