Abstract

Gamma or 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 energies. Further, it is a challenge to distinguish hadron-initiated air showers from those initiated by primary gamma photons in detecting high energy gamma point sources using ground-based particle detector array. Therefore, this project presents an integrated machine learning application designed for the discrimination of gamma and hadron showers recorded by atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes
