چکیده مقاله:

Simulation of gamma and hadron showers in the energy range 100GeV- 25TeV has been carried out. For a big ideal Cherenkov light array, characteristics of lateral distribution of Cherenkov photon density have been studied. Results from this ideal detector are compared with those simulated for a real TUNKA- like array to investigate experimental potential of using existence of a hump in lateral distribution of Cherenkov photon density for gamma-hadron separation. It is shown that by using this technique the proton rejection efficiency of %63 can be achieved in typical TUNKA-like arrays.

وجود قله در توزیع عرضی فوتون‌های چرنکوف بهمن گامای اولیه‌ و تاثیر عوامل موثر برآن

Energetic secondary particles in gamma and hadron initiated showers can generate Cherenkov photons. Using CORSIKA code and simulation data, different characteristics of lateral distribution of Cherenkov photon density are studied. In particular, physical origin of these differences and also dependence of this distribution on primary energy and altitude of observation level are discussed. It is ...

Gamma-Hadron Separation using Čerenkov Photon Density Fluctuations

In atmospheric Čerenkov technique γ−rays are detected against abundant background produced by hadronic showers. In order to improve signal to noise ratio of the experiment, it is necessary to reject a significant fraction of hadronic showers. The temporal and spectral differences, the lateral distributions and density fluctuations of Čerenkov photons generated by γ−ray and hadron primaries are ...

A study on the lateral distribution of Cherenkov light in extensive air showers

The dependence of the lateral distribution of Cherenkov light in simulated extensive air showers to the energy and the mass of the primary cosmic rays has been studied. It has been shown that a previous claim about mass independent proportionality of shower energy to the total Cherenkov photon number is not valid in energies below EEAS ~ 1014 eV. We have found that the core distance of the so c...
