Bergman, Jon Paul Lundquist, 2023, published scientific conference contribution Abstract: The TAx4 experiment plans to realize an Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) detection area four times larger than that of the TA experiment. TAx4 will include five hundreds new surface detectors (SD) spaced at 2.08 km and two new fluorescence detectors (FD), which provides hybrid observation of UHECRs. We deployed 257 SDs in 2019 and completed building 2 FD stations in 2020, all operating stably. The data acquisition of the SDs is made via six communication towers, and inter-tower triggers have been recently implemented.
