Infrastructure Requirements; Site Selection
T has a number of requirements for a candidate site: AC power, a container or
ing for housing, a network connection, and a view of the CLF. An external trigger
an existing FD building would also be useful. Placing FAST adjacent to an existing
uilding meets all these requirements, provided conduits for the necessary cabling.

1. Introduction
The hybrid detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory [1] consists of 1600
surface stations – water Cherenkov tanks and their associated electronics – and
24 air fluorescence telescopes. The Observatory is located outside the city of
Malarg¨ue, Argentina (69◦
W, 35◦
S, 1400 m a.s.l.) and the detector layout is
shown in Fig. 1. Details of the construction, deployment and maintenance of
the array of surface detectors are described elsewhere [2]. In this paper we will
concentrate on details of the fluorescence detector and its performance.

1. Introduction
The main aim of the Telescope Array (TA) experiment [1] is to
explore the origin of ultra high energy cosmic rays (UHECR) using
their energy spectrum, composition and anisotropy. There are two
major methods of observation for detecting cosmic rays in the
energy region above 1017.5
eV. One method which was used at the
High Resolution Fly’s Eye (HiRes) experiment is to detect air
fluorescence light along air shower track using fluorescence
detectors. The other method, adopted by the AGASA experiment,
is to detect air shower particles at ground level using surface
detectors deployed over a wide area ( $ 100 km
2
).
The AGASA experiment reported that there were 11 events
above 1020
eV in the energy spectrum [2,3]. However, the
existence of the GZK cutoff [4,5] was reported by the HiRes
experiment [6]. The Pierre Auger experimen
