Top panel: effective area before gamma-hadron separation for a representative zenith angle of 20◦. The standard configurations of HAP, Mono (full gray line) and Stereo (full orange line) are compared to the types Type M (dashed green line), Type B (dashed blue line), and Type A (dashed magenta line) and to the combined Event types (full purple line). Bottom panel: energy ranges within which each type contributes to at least 10% of the total effective area for different zenith angles. The lower limit of Type M is defined as the energy for which its effective area drops below 10% of the maximum of the combined one.
