Identification of showers with the core outside the ARGO-YBJ detector

2026-07-072026-07-07http://salesiana.dossiersoluciones.com/handle/123456789/6419In this paper we present a procedure able to identify and reject showers with the core outside the ARGO-YBJ carpet boundaries. The efficiency of this method is investigated for different primary energies and fiducial areas. A comparison of the results for gamma and proton induced showers is also presented.10 pages, Presented at the "Incontro Nazionale di Astrofisica delle Alte Energie", Rome 15-16 May 2003AstrophysicsIdentification of showers with the core outside the ARGO-YBJ detectortext
