Peak intensity of detected TeV gamma-ray flux becomes ten times stronger than that of X-ray flux from the nebula.
TeV gamma-ray flux is difficult to explain by Sync-IC(2.7k CMB) model in the nebula.

Stereo Analysis
DAQ phase I (current):Both telescopes are operatedIndependently.
Attached information on T2 data:
•Trigger delay time (1nsec resolution).•Current event number of T1.
Stereo analysis is conducted on off-line.

Stereo Trigger rate
T1: trigger rate ~ 40HzT2: trigger rate ~ 30Hz
Coincidence ~ 2Hz
T1 rate after cut ~2Hz
The Stereo trigger rate is limited by T1.

Summary
Stereo Observation Started in Dec 2002!!
•Telescope 3 will be started in Aug 2003.•Telescope 4 will be started in Dec 2003.
CANGAROO team published 3 papers in 2002.•RXJ1713 (Enomoto et al. , Nature)•NGC253 (Itoh et al. , A&A)•Mrk 421 (Okumura et al. , ApJ)
And we have several papers in prep.
Telescope 2 is in expected performance.
Energy threshold ~ 200GeV
Sensitivity will become ~ 0.01Crab (@200GeV, 20 hour).
