DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Mikhail Shulga (Joint Institute for Nuclear Research
  (JINR)\, Dubna\, Russia)\nTAIGA-100 is a project of a large-scale astroph
 ysical complex designed to solve a wide range of fundamental problems in g
 amma astronomy in the energy range from 300 GeV to above 1 PeV\, cosmic ra
 y (CR) physics from 100 TeV to 10 EeV\, particle astrophysics\, neutrino p
 hysics\, and interdisciplinary research. The complex will include several 
 types of detectors for registering different components of extensive air s
 howers (EAS) over an area of 100 km^2. The basic elements of the project w
 ill be wide-angle atmospheric Cherenkov stations with a field of view of ~
 2 sr and water Cherenkov detectors (WCD) with an area of ~40 m^2\, supplem
 ented by scintillation counters and radio antennas. Atmospheric Cherenkov 
 telescopes are also planned to be placed in the central part of the new in
 stallation\, and fluorescence detectors on its periphery.\n\nThe construct
 ion of the TAIGA-100 complex is planned to be carried out in stages. At pr
 esent\, work is proceeding in three key directions. First\, computer simul
 ations are being performed to determine the optimal configuration of the i
 nstallation and its potential\, as well as to develop methods for reconstr
 ucting EAS parameters and primary radiation. Second\, a site is being soug
 ht for the TAIGA-100 complex. Third\, detector systems are being developed
 . Within the latter direction\, the construction of a pilot installation w
 ith an area of 0.5 km^2 is also planned\, using the infrastructure and ope
 rational experience of the existing TAIGA-1 gamma observatory. As a first 
 step\, in autumn 2025 an experimental station based on a WCD prototype wit
 h an area of ~7 m^2 was created and put into data taking. At the next stag
 e\, two full-scale water detectors are expected to be deployed during autu
 mn 2026. In addition\, the development and implementation of an innovative
  system for the extraction and transmission of trigger signals is planned.
 \n\nThe report presents a description and results of test measurements of 
 the analog signal readout channel for the WCD over a wide dynamic range\, 
 the data acquisition system\, and the system for generating and transmitti
 ng trigger signals.\n\nhttps://indico.particle.mephi.ru/event/626/contribu
