Description

To search for PeVatrons we need to make the absolute most of our highest energy event observations, but they are often at significant distances away from the detector array, potentially only triggering a single telescope, and the images may appear "truncated" or cut off in the telescope camera. Applying the pixel peak-time information is one way to try and recover these events, which may otherwise have been discarded. This is what I aim to do for the first part of my postdoctoral research.
