Eventdisplay: An Analysis and Reconstruction Package for Ground-based Gamma-ray Astronomy [IMA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/1708.04048


Eventdisplay is a software package for the analysis and reconstruction of data and Monte Carlo events from ground-based gamma-ray observatories such as VERITAS and CTA. It was originally developed as a display tool for data from the VERITAS prototype telescope, but evolved into a full analysis package with routines for calibration, FADC trace integration, image and stereo parameter analysis, response function calculation, and high-level analysis steps. Eventdisplay makes use of an image parameter analysis combined with gamma-hadron separation methods based on multivariate algorithms. An overview of the reconstruction methods and some selected results are presented in this contribution.
