Descripción
With the commissioning of the second MAGIC gamma-ray Cherenkov telescope
situated close to MAGIC-I, the standard analysis package of the MAGIC
collaboration, MARS, has been upgraded in order to perform the
stereoscopic reconstruction of the detected atmospheric showers. MARS is
a ROOT-based code written in C++, which includes all the necessary
algorithms to transform the raw data recorded by the telescopes into
information about the physics parameters of the observed targets. An
overview of the methods for extracting the basic shower parameters is
presented, together with a description of the tools used in the
background discrimination and in the estimation of the gamma-ray source
spectra.
