Update on the angular resolution of GRAPES-3 experiment based on Moon shadow analysis
GRAPES-3 is an extensive air shower array located at Ooty (11.6 ^\circ ° N, 76.7 ^\circ ° E, 2200 m a.s.l.) in southern India. Recently, the angular resolution of the GRAPES-3 array has been improved by correcting the shower front curvature based on the shower size and age. Here, we present the results of the angular resolution and pointing accuracy of the array through observation of the Moon shadow. We have analyzed the data for the period of 2014-2016 containing \sim ∼ 3 \times × 10 ^9 9 air shower events with a median energy of 15 TeV. A significant improvement in the angular resolution has been observed compared to the earlier analysis by the group through the Moon shadow method and is comparable to the arrays located at a 2 km higher altitude than the GRAPES-3 experiment.
