The Tunka experiment refers to a series of astroparticle physics experiments located in the Tunka Valley in Siberia, Russia. The primary focus of these experiments is on cosmic rays and the observation of high-energy particles in the atmosphere. The most notable is the Tunka-133 experiment, which is designed to detect extensive air showers (EAS) produced when high-energy cosmic rays interact with the Earth's atmosphere.
