摘要
Quantitative modeling of a system of optical concentrators based on an improved design of Winston hexagonal cones, providing a possibility of using light filters and intended for the registration camera of a small-size Cherenkov gamma-ray telescope, has been performed. The transmission of the cones is calculated, and the intensity distributions of the photon flux in the detector plane are given. Based on the results obtained, an optimal configuration of optical concentrators is proposed with an account for design features of the TAIGA-IACT mount, mirror, and camera, as well as of new detector units. The results obtained for the considered system are compared with the previously published models.
