Study of the angular resolution of the ARGO-YBJ detector

arXiv:astro-ph/0309108

Abstract

The determination of the arrival direction of gamma-induced air showers in the ARGO-YBJ experiment has been investigated using different algorithms in the reconstruction procedure. The calculation has been performed, as a function of pad multiplicity, for different primary energies. The performance of a conical correction to the shower front with a suitable fixed cone slope is discussed.
