About
Andrey Sidorenkov is a physicist specializing in astroparticle and gamma-ray astronomy, with a focus on the detection of high-energy cosmic and gamma rays using ground-based Cherenkov arrays. His key research areas include the development and operation of the TAIGA-HiSCORE facility, a wide-angle Cherenkov detector array designed for extensive air shower measurements. Sidorenkov’s major contribution lies in pioneering the use of the TAIGA-HiSCORE array to detect fast-moving point sources in the upper atmosphere. In his most cited work (2017, 7 citations), he reported the first ground-based observation of the CATS-LIDAR onboard the International Space Station, demonstrating the facility’s ability to detect unscattered laser light from the ISS at kilometer-scale distances. This achievement showcases the array’s sensitivity and opens new avenues for atmospheric and space-based calibration studies. Sidorenkov’s work is notable for bridging ground-based gamma-ray astronomy with space-based lidar systems, highlighting the versatility of the TAIGA-HiSCORE facility. His research continues to advance the capabilities of wide-angle Cherenkov detectors, contributing to the broader field of high-energy astrophysics and atmospheric monitoring.
