FAMOUS/HAWC - A small size air-Cherenkov telescope for a ground detector array - a possible future extension? — •Merlin Schaufel — RWTH Aachen, Germany

The fluorescence telescope FAMOUS turned out to be a versatile and multi-use instrument. After the successful measurement of Cherenkov light originating from air showers with the 7-pixel prototype and the commissioning of the FAMOUS-type IceAct at the South Pole, the new 61 pixel telescope is now operational.
A joint measurement of the FAMOUS telescope, in sync with the gamma ray observatory HAWC (Serra Negra, Mexico), will allow a detailed characterization of the telescope performance using the additional reconstruction information from the array with real events. Furthermore, it will test the technology of small IACTs as a possible extension of array type detectors to improve i.a. the energy resolution for the high energy range. In this talk, I present the current status of the integration of an external detector system into the HAWC DAQ and the possible opportunities of such a combination.
