title = "Studies of lidar calibration for the next generation of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes",
abstract = "The next generation of ground-based imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope arrays (AGIS, CTA) seek an energy threshold of some 10's of GeV whilst minimising systematic uncertainty in derived flux and energy. To achieve this a detailed study of atmospheric quality is required. In this work we shall present a simulation study using an array comprising 97 telescopes, folded with real lidar data, to show the effect of changing atmospheric quality on a reconstructed gamma-ray spectrum. This work forms part of the design study performed by the atmospheric and calibration working group of the CTA consortium.",
