Cerenkov light images of EAS produced by primary gamma

It is shown that it should be possible to distinguish very effectively between background hadronic showers and TeV gamma ray showers from a point source on the basis of the width, length and orientation of the Cerenkov light images of the shower, seen in the focal plane of a focusing mirror, even with a relatively coarse pixel size such as employed in the Mt. Hopkins detector. Predictions of the response of this system to air showers are presented.
