    abstract = "A detector of new design is planned to detect Cherenkov light in high
energy cosmic ray showers.  It is based on the detection of the
middle-UV radiation by TMAE photosensitive chambers, giving detailed
imaging of the shower, combined with the beneficial background screening
of the ozone in the upper atmosphere.  This allows us to greatly improve
the duty-cycle, the sensitivity and the range of observations with
respect to traditional Cherenkov experiments in the visible.  A further
advantage is the achievable big angular aperture which makes it possible
to search for new sources with an efficiency similar to extensive air
shower experiments.  Details of the technique and achievable physics
goals are presented."
