PRELIMINARY
-hadron separation by using cuts in:
• LENGTH, WIDTH,
DISTANCE, etc
Since all these parameters are not independent, we use
Dynamical cuts
LENGTH
WIDTH
Remark: cuts are optimized using ON and OFF data.
MC data are not used for optimization due to ongoing tuning of MC

First step: pointing and tracking precision• Star guider (online correction, being commissioned)• Use anode currents to determine star positions (offline)
For determination of the source dependant parameters:SOURCE POSITION is needed
Preliminary results by using anode currents:
• Position with a statistical error ~0.01
• possible to detect stars until 8th magnitude in the inner pixels
• updating every 10 sec
Second step: determine source position (known coordinates)

If the source position unknown:
1. For each position in FoV the source dependant parameters are calculated
2. The same for the OFF data
3. For all positions in FoV the alpha plot is produced and Nexcess / significance are calculated

Other analysis techniques:
• Further optimization of gamma-hadron separation using Hillas parameters:
• Random Forest (is used)
• Neural Net (ready to be used)
• Fit the complete camera event information:
• Model Analysis (being development)
• Lightcurve (gamma-flux as a function of time)
• Energy spectrum
