Description

The energy estimation method is based on the inverse interpolation of the dependence of the
integral over the axially symmetric function approximating the EAS image on the distance from the
detector axis to the shower axis on the snow. For the approximation and the parameters derived
from it to be authentic the shower axis should hit the snow within the field of view of the telescope.
Due to the fluctuations of the reflected photon flow a random local maximum can be mistaken for
the absolute one, corresponding to the shower axis, while the true axis is not visible. A method was
developed to filter out such situations which decreases the mean uncertainty of the primary energy
estimate.
