Description

We report our results on the new technique for searching for photon-induced EAS events at the Carpet-3 experiment. To search for photon-like events, we employ a neural network, trained on Monte-Carlo simulations of the experiment. Both reconstructed EAS parameters and raw detector signal data are being used. On Monte-Carlo simulations our method achieves considerably higher background rejection efficiency than traditional methods, particularly for EAS events with high muon content.
