Abstract
We present analysis techniques specific to multi‐TeV extensive air showers (EAS). Our emphasis is on Cherenkov imaging at large core distances. Such techniques are being developed for the simulation study of TenTen, a proposed array of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) optimized for the multi‐TeV regime, which aims for a collecting area of 10 km2 above energies of 10 TeV. Preliminary results using timing information from EAS are discussed with a view to improving shower reconstruction and background rejection for one simulated cell of the array. Based on these findings a direction reconstruction algorithm is implemented that gives an improvement in angular resolution of ∼30% over our standard geometric reconstruction for shower energies above 10 TeV.
