Systematic studies of the Richardson-Lucy deconvolution algorithm applied to VHE gamma data

► The Richardson-Lucy-Algorithm was applied to very high-energy gamma-ray images. ► Systematic studies of the RLA with respect to source characteristics were performed. ► Deconvolution allows to study structural details below instrumental angular resolution. ► Deconvolution is applicable on 2 of the known 5 VHE shell-type SNRs.
