Analysis of the possibilities of suppression of the cosmic-ray background when detecting very high energy cosmic gamma quanta by means of a system of Cherenkov gamma telescopes with multichannel light receivers; Analiz vozmozhnosti podavleniya fona kosmicheskikh luchej pri registratsii kosmicheskikh gamma-kvantov sverkhvysokoj ehnergii s pomoshch`yu sistemy cherenkovskikh gamma-teleskopov s mnogokanal`nymi svetopriemnikami

Abstract

A multi-dimensional correlation analysis based on the Bayesian decision rules and non-parametric estimation of multi-dimensional probability densities is used to classify the Cherenkov images registered by a system of Cherenkov gamma telescops with multichannel light receivers. The difference in the size of the Cherenkov image and its location and orientation in the focal plane of the gamma telescope mirror are used to classify the events initiated by the cosmic gamma quanta from discrete sources and by cosmic rays. The multi-dimensional correlation analysis is shown to allow to discriminate the cosmic ray background down to fractions of a percent, thus leaving about 50% of the useful events. 12 refs.; 5 figs.; 7 tabs.
