Performance of the IceAct Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes at the South Pole — •Franziska Maria Tischbein1, Thomas Bretz2, Giang Do2, Frank Maslowski2, Yuriy Popovych1, Florian Rehbein2, Merlin Schaufel1, and Christopher Wiebusch1 for the IceCube collaboration — 1RWTH Aachen University - Physics Institute III B, Aachen, Germany — 2RWTH Aachen University - Physics Institute III A, Aachen, Germany

IceAct telescopes are compact Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) that are used to observe cosmic-ray showers in coincidence with the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. With a hybrid observation it is possible to calibrate the surface and in-ice components of IceCube. Furthermore, the primary particle identification of IceTop can be improved and potentially a veto for atmospheric neutrinos in IceCube can be provided. In January 2019, two new IceAct telescopes, with different camera and DAQ design, were installed at a distance of 220m close to the center of the IceTop surface array. This talk will present the different steps to understand the data and compare the performances of the telescopes in this configuration.
