N2 - Abstract: The optical throughput of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) is an important detector characteristic used to reconstruct the parameters of detected events. The TAIGA astrophysical complex includes TAIGA-IACT facility—an array of three IACTs and 120 TAIGA-HiSCORE wide-angle Cherenkov detectors on an area of 1 km2. The complex is aimed at solving the relevant problems in gamma-astronomy of very high energies (VHE) and ultra high energies (UHE). The TAIGA-HiSCORE complex makes it possible to reconstruct the lateral distribution function (LDF) of Cherenkov photons in an extensive air shower (EAS). This information makes it possible to determine the number of Cherenkov photons reaching IACT reflectors and, eventually, to determine the efficiency of their detection. The present paper describes this approach to calibrating the optical throughput of the TAIGA-IACT facility.
