validate_charge_distribution
tools/validate_charge_distribution.cwl (CommandLineTool)
validate_charge_distribution

Compare (plot, statistical metric) integrated charge spectrum for pedestal events, cosmic-ray measurements and events from artificial light sources between observations (from cosmic-ray and night-sky background events and data from artificial light source) with corresponding simulations. Includes the integrated charge vs pulse maximum and pulse width correlation. Charge distributions from pedestal events allow to validate afterpulsing rates for PMT-type detectors.

validate_telescope_efficiency_by_history
tools/validate_telescope_efficiency_by_history.cwl (CommandLineTool)
validate_telescope_efficiency_by_history

Determine effective mirror area and telescope efficiency. Compare with historical results or with results obtained by reference simulation models. Take into account the photon spectrum of shower events, muonic events, and different levels of night-sky background.

validate_telescope_efficiency_using_muons
tools/validate_telescope_efficiency_using_muons.cwl (CommandLineTool)
validate_telescope_efficiency_using_muons

Compare reconstructed brightness (total intensity) of simulated and measured muons.
