Description

Large High-Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) has one square kilometer array of scintillator detectors and muon detectors, 18 Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes and a 78,000 square meter Water Cherenkov Detector Array. LHAASO located at very high altitude (around 4410 m a.s.l.) in China. Multi-parameter observation of showers allows to measurement the energy spectrum, elemental composition and anisotropy with high resolution, which give us an excellent opportunity to understand the origin, acceleration and propagation of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. The 1/4, the 1/2, the 3/4 LHAASO array have started running in September 2019, in January 2020, in December 2020 respectively. Preliminary results and the prospect of the energy spectrum, elemental composition and anisotropy measured by LHAASO experiment will be presented in the paper.
