Scientific paper

The proposed SCORE detector consists of a large array of light collecting modules designed to sample the Cherenkov light front of extensive air showers in order to detect high energy gamma-rays. A large spacing of the detector stations makes it possible to cover a huge area with a reasonable effort, thus achieving a good sensitivity up to energies of about a few 10 PeV. In this paper the event reconstruction algorithm for SCORE is presented and used to obtain the anticipated performance of the detector in terms of angular resolution, energy resolution, shower depth resolution and gamma / hadron separation.
