TL;DR: In this article, an optimized method is presented for the reconstruction of air shower directions for scintillator arrays, taking into account that both the expectation value and the spread of the measured arrival times not only depend on the distance of a counter from the shower axis, but also on the number of particles registered in that counter.

A new air Cherenkov counter concept for the observation of extended air showers
M. Bott-Bodenhausen,I. Holl,A. Kabelschacht,A. Karle,E. Lorenz,R. Maier,M. Merck,W. Pimpl,M. Rozanska,P. Weisbach,F. Arqueros,V. Fonseca,S. Martinez,J. Piñeiro,M. Rodríguez +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, an array of angle integrating air Cherenkov counters for the study of VHE and UHE cosmic rays is presented, which is sensitive to extended air showers of energies > 5 × 1013 meV and of zenith angles up to 35°.
