In modern astrophysics, the development of new instruments for detecting high-energy particles is highly relevant for the next generation of gamma-ray and cosmic ray observatories. This work presents an innovative design for hexagonal water Cherenkov tanks equipped with two bladders and three layers of photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), aimed at optimizing gamma/hadron separation in the energy range of 50 GeV to 10 TeV.
