Scientific paper

The Tibet ASγ experiment, which has started since January, 1990, is located at an altitude of 4300 m at Yangbaging in Tibet, China (90.5°E, 30.1°N). The air-shower array is composed of 49 scintillation counters for fast timing, each counter having an area of 0.5 m2, in a grid pattern with a spacing of 15 m and 16 density detectors. The analysis of experimental data shows that the performance of array is realized as expected by the Monte Carlo simulation. The detection threshold energy for γ-rays is ≡40 TeV; the peak energy 20 TeV. The angular resolution around 100 TeV is ≡0.5°. The systematic error of arrival direction is considerably smaller than the angular resolution in the concerned energy region.
