If needed, I can do an extended talk about Cherenkov light production.
Code should be available until then in a branch.

4. Fluorescence light emission in CORSIKA 8

Daniel Morcuende (Universidad Complutense de Madrid)

Air fluorescence has been usually neglected in current IACTs and wide-angle timing air Cherenkov detectors as the fluorescence light component is emitted isotropically and with a lower light yield than the Cherenkov component. However, next-generation km-scale arrays will register signals from air showers at impact distances where both light components start to be comparable. In order to take...
