Multi-fractal and Wavelet Analysis for Cosmic Ray Multi-fractal and Wavelet Analysis for Cosmic Ray Mass Composition Studies using the TACTIC Telescope

Abstract

We have investigated the efficiency of multifractal and wavelet parameters of the simulated images of atmospheric Cerenkov events, in segregating the events in terms of primary mass. We find that the fractal dimension D6 and the wavelet dimension 6 can be employed effectively for studying cosmic ray mass composition at > 20 TeV energy with the TACTIC array.
