摘要

Abstract

The main goal of the TUS experiment was to search for and study ultra high-energy cosmic rays with energy of \(E>70\) EeV. At the same time, the TUS detector registered several dozen of unusual events, the origin of which is unclear. Atmospheric gamma-ray bursts (TGF and TGE) are considered as their possible sources. In this work, anomalous events are used to calibrate the TUS photodetector.
