Scientific paper

A LIDAR, based on the detection of single backscattered photon, is under construction at the MPI for Physics in Munich. It is envisaged to be operated simultaneously with the 17 m diameter MAGIC air Cherenkov telescope. The LIDAR will allow one to measure the aerosol height distribution in the atmosphere. This information can be used to correct for light losses in air showers due to scattering on aerosols and thus to improve the energy estimate of the primary particles measured by MAGIC. A 50 cm diameter Almirror is used in the LIDAR together with a 2.5¡£¢¥¤§¦©¨ J per 0.6 ns pulsed Nd:YAG-laser at 532 nm. The status and the first measurements will be reported.
