Data confidence 70 medium

How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This article overviews the performance of the Horizon-10T (H10T) detector system in Physics Run 1. The upgraded H10T detector system consists of ten charged particle detection points, separated by distances from a hundred meters up to 1.3 kilometer and is able to detect disks in primary particle energy ranges of 1016-1019 eV and zenith angles from 0° to 85° with a few ns precision.
