Аннотация:The Tunka HISCORE wide angle Cherenkov array, one part of the planned TAIGA integrated
gamma observatory intended for investigations in the field of highenergy (>30 TeV) gammaray astronomy
and cosmicray physics, is deployed in the Tunka Valley (Buryat Republic). The first results from operating a prototype facility composed of nine stations spread over an area of ~0.1 square kilometers during the winter of 2013–2014 are presented. Data processing techniques are described, along with data on the accuracy of reconstructing the position of a shower’s axis, energy, and angle of arrival. The differential spectrum of all cosmicray particles in a shower in the energy range of 2 × 10^14 to 2 × 10^16 eV is presented and compared to the available data.
