Abstract

A neural-network approach is applied to the problem of correctly pairing photons from π 0, η, and higher resonance decays in the presence of a large background of photons resulting from many simultaneous decays. The method uses the full information of the multiphoton final state to suppress the selection of false photon pairs which arise from the many combinatorial possibilities. The method is demonstrated for simulated high photon multiplicity events under realistic experimental conditions. The applicability and limitations of this method, or similar methods which use the full event information, are discussed.
