abstract = {The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the next major
observatory for Very High Energy (VHE) γ-ray astronomy. Its
optical throughput calibration relies on muon Cherenkov
rings. This work is aimed at developing a fast and efficient
muon tagger at the camera level for the CTA telescopes. A
novel technique to tag muons using the capabilities of
silicon photomultiplier Compact High-Energy Camera CHEC-S,
one of the design options for the camera of the Small Size
Telescopes (SSTs), has been developed, studying and
comparing different algorithms such as circle fitting,
machine learning and simple pixel counting. Their
performance in terms of efficiency and computation speed was
investigated using simulations with varying levels of night
sky background light. The application of the best performing
method to the Large Size Telescope (LST) camera has been
also studied, with the goal of improving the speed of the
muon preselection.},
