Abstract
MeV Gamma-ray Telescope (MGT) is a conceptual mission aimed at improving the detection sensitivity of gamma-ray astronomy in the MeV energy range. It consists of three sub-detectors: Gamma-ray Conversion silicon tracker, CALOrimeter and Anti-Coincident Detector. In this paper, a track reconstruction algorithm based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) is developed for MGT. In order to train and test the model, Geant4 simulation is used and generates a large number of gamma-ray events at nine energy points in the energy band from 0.5 GeV to 10 GeV. Finally, the reconstruction results of angular resolution, position resolution and acceptance are shown. The testing results indicate that the angular resolution of MGT significantly improves in the GeV range compared with Fermi-LAT.

期刊介绍:
Astronomy and Computing is a peer-reviewed journal that focuses on the broad area between astronomy, computer science and information technology. The journal aims to publish the work of scientists and (software) engineers in all aspects of astronomical computing, including the collection, analysis, reduction, visualisation, preservation and dissemination of data, and the development of astronomical software and simulations. The journal covers applications for academic computer science techniques to astronomy, as well as novel applications of information technologies within astronomy.
