The Telescope Array observatory utilizes fluorescence detectors and surface to observe air showers produced by ultra high energy cosmic rays in the Earth's atmosphere. Cosmic ray events observed this way are termed hybrid data. depth of shower maximum is related mass primary particle that generates shower.

We report on a measurement of the cosmic ray energy spectrum by Telescope Array Low-Energy Extension (TALE) air fluorescence detector. The TALE detector is also sensitive to Cherenkov light produced shower particles. Low rays, in PeV range, are detectable as "Cherenkov Events". Using these events, we measure from low $\sim 2$ an greater than 100 PeV. Above can detect rays using fluorescence. This allows for extension energies few EeV. In this paper, will describe detector, explain technique,...
