Description
A method for fast simulation of the Cherenkov light generated by electromagnetic showers is described. The parametrization for the longitudinal profile is used and fluctuations and correlations of the parameters are taken into account in a consistent way. Our method dramatically reduces the CPU time and its results are in a rather good agreement with a full Monte Carlo simulation.
