Scientific paper

Two alternative strategies for extraction of low energy gamma-ray events detected using the 490 pixel Whipple 10 m IACT high resolution camera are described. method one (MC-A) is an optimisation based on observations of Mrk 421 in a flaring state. method two (MC-B ) is an optimisation which addresses inherent differences in sky brightness between ON source and OFF source observations of the Crab Nebula. In each case a set of parameter cuts was derived and optimised to give a maximum signal rate excess.
