Updates on the Lake Design for SWGO — •Hazal Goksu — Saupfercheckweg 1, 69117 Heidelberg

The lake concept is one of the detector design options considered for the Southern Wide-field Gamma-ray Observatory (SWGO), a next-generation high altitude gamma-ray observatory in the southern hemisphere that is made of an array of water Cherenkov detectors. SWGO, with its wide energy range, broad field of view, and large duty cycle, positioned in the southern hemisphere, will complement other planned and existing gamma-ray observatories. In the lake design, light-tight bladders, each housing one or more photosensors, filled with clean water, are deployed near the surface of a natural or artificial lake. Prototyping and testing for over two years have led to the first dual-layer prototype detector for SWGO that is currently in operation. In this contribution, we will give an update on the prototyping studies and simulations for the lake design option.

Keywords: gamma-ray; Water Cherenkov Detector (WCD) array; detector design; prototyping; lake
