摘要
Auger Muons and Infill for the Ground Array)是皮埃尔·奥格天文台的一次升级，旨在扩展其探测范围并直接测量粒子簇射中的缪子含量。它由表面水切伦科夫探测器的填充阵列以及用于缪子计数的埋置闪烁体探测器组成。AMIGA工程阵列(称为Unitary Cell)的主要目标是识别并解决所有工程问题，以及理解与探测器设计相关的缪子计数不确定性。本文档描述了Unitary Cell缪子计数器的机械设计、制造和部署过程。这些缪子计数器模块包含密封PVC外壳，内装塑料闪烁条、波长移位光学纤维、64像素光电倍增管和采集电子学。模块埋于地面以下约2.25 m处以最小化电磁簇射粒子的污染。此外，还描述了允许接触电子学进行维护的机械装置，以及对模块响应和完整性的测试。已完成的Unitary Cell测量了若干空气簇射，本文包含了其中一个样本事件的初步分析。
