Proton shower reconstruction bias #3

@nkorzoun

Description

@nkorzoun

Because we assume the telescopes are pointing directly at gamma-ray sources, the simulated telescope azimuth and elevation angles are grabbed from the arrival direction of the incident particle in the event. For gamma-ray reconstruction this works well. For proton reconstruction, it means that the arrival directions are not uniformly distributed in the camera because the telescope will point to a 'proton source'. A more robust solution is probably to use VIEWCONE in the corsika steering files. A temporary workaround is to specify a fixed telescope pointing for proton showers in the panodisplay.C script.
