Deep learning with photosensor timing information as a background rejection method for the Cherenkov Telescope Array

1 code implementation • 10 Mar 2021 • Samuel Spencer, Thomas Armstrong, Jason Watson, Salvatore Mangano, Yves Renier, Garret Cotter

As the arrival times of Cherenkov photons from Extensive Air Showers (EAS) at the camera plane are dependent upon the altitude of their emission and the impact distance from the telescope, these waveforms contain information potentially useful for IACT event classification.
