Muon–Electron Pulse Shape Discrimination for Water Cherenkov Detectors Based on FPGA/SoC

The distinction of secondary particles in extensive air showers, specifically muons and electrons, is one of the requirements to perform a good measurement of the composition of primary cosmic rays. We describe two methods for pulse shape detection and discrimination of muons and electrons implement...
