摘要
We present here CORSIKA-based simulation results with the principal aim of examining the feasibility of operating a MACE-like large-aperture Cerenkov telescope in the near UV-region (lambda similar to 220-300nm). Among other things, this unconventional mode of operation will help to use such a telescope under moonlit conditions, leading to a significantly larger operational duty-cycle at low gamma -ray threshold energies.
