Scientific paper

We discuss the use of kernel analysis as a technique for selecting gamma-ray candidates in Atmospheric Cherenkov astronomy. The method is applied to observations of the Crab Nebula and Markarian 501 recorded with the Whipple 10 m Atmospheric Cherenkov imaging system, and the results are compared with the standard Supercuts analysis. Since kernel analysis is computationally intensive, we examine approaches to reducing the computational load. Extension of the technique to estimate the energy of the gamma-ray primary is considered. .
