Ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs), whose are beyond $10^{18}~\mathrm{eV}$, the most energetic particles we have ever detected. The latest results seem to indicate a heavier composition at highest energies, complicating search for their origins.

The Fluorescence detector Array of Single-pixel Telescopes (FAST) is one several proposed designs for a next-generation cosmic-ray detector. Such detectors will require enormous collecting areas whilst also needing to remain cost-efficient. To meet these demands, the FAST collaboration has designed simplified, low-cost fluorescence telescope consisting only four photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). Since standard air shower reconstruction techniques cannot be used with so few PMTs, utilises an...
