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 0. 5 ∼ 10 GeV range compared with Fermi-LAT. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
