Scientific paper

The HEGRA system of 5 imaging air Čerenkov telescopes was used for the extensive observations of the Crab Nebula. The observations have been extended to the zenith angles as large as 65 degree. Here we present the results of the data analysis in particular for the data taken at large zenith angles. LZA observations significantly improve the statistics for the γ-rays of energy above 5 TeV. Resulting spectrum of the Crab Nebula does not show apparent curvature in this energy range and may be fitted by pure power law in the energy range from 500 GeV to 20 TeV. .
