Discriminating sub-TeV gamma and hadron-induced showers through their footprints
R. Conceição, B. S. González, A. Guillén +2
Gamma/hadron discrimination in ground-based gamma-ray observatories at the sub-TeV energy range is challenging as traditional muon-based methods become less effective at lower ener…
The Mercedes water Cherenkov detector
P. Assis, A. Bakalová, U. Barres de Almeida +13
The concept of a small, single-layer water Cherenkov detector, with three photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), placed at its bottom in a star configuration (\emph{Mercedes}…
Tackling the muon identification in water Cherenkov detectors problem for the future Southern Wide-field Gamma-ray Observatory by means of Machine Learning
B. S. González, R. Conceição, M. Pimenta +2
This paper presents several approaches to deal with the problem of identifying muons in a water Cherenkov detector with a reduced water volume and 4 PMTs. Different perspectives of…
Muon identification in a compact single-layered water Cherenkov detector and gamma/hadron discrimination using Machine Learning techniques
R. Conceição, B. S. González, A. Guillén +2
The muon tagging is an essential tool to distinguish between gamma and hadron-induced showers in wide field-of-view gamma-ray observatories. In this work, it is shown that an effic…
