New methods to reconstruct $$X_{\mathrm{max}}$$ X max and the energy of gamma-ray air showers with high accuracy in large wide-field observatories
Abstract Novel methods to reconstruct the slant depth of the maximum of the longitudinal profile ( $$X_{\mathrm{max}}$$ X max ) of high-energy showers initiated by gamma-rays as well as their energy ( $$E_0$$ E 0 ) are presented. The methods were developed for gamma rays with energies ranging from a...
