Abstract:A central question of Astroparticle Physics, the origin of cosmic rays, still remains unsolved. HiSCORE (Hundred*i Square-km Cosmic ORigin Explorer) is a concept for a large-area wide-angle non-imaging air shower detector, addressing this question by searching for cosmic ray pevatrons in the energy range from 10 TeV to few PeV and cosmic rays in the energy range above 100 TeV. In the framework of the Tunka-HiSCORE project, first prototypes have been deployed on the site of the Tunka-133 experiment, where we pl… Show more
We review the status of ground-based multi-TeV gamma-ray astronomy. Short descriptions of presently operating and planned detectors in theˇeld are given.
