Description
Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov telescope is starting its
operations with a set of engineering runs to tune the telescope
subsystem elements to be ready for the first physics campaign. Many
technical improvements have been developed and implemented in several
elements of the telescope to reach the lowest energy threshold ever
obtained by an Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope. A general
description of the telescope is presented. The commissioning of the
telescope's elements is described and the expected performances are
reviewed with the final detector set-up.
