Caption: Figure 3.

Integrated amount of photoelectrons from muon Cerenkov light, using Equation (20), impinging on the telescope and registered in the camera, for the three different telescope designs for the CTA. The dashed lines show the case of no shadows, while the solid lines show the situation with a corresponding shadow from either an approximated roundish camera or a possible secondary mirror for the SST. A common value of Bμ ≃ 0.65 eV has been assumed.
