AbstraktAbstract

The SuperNEMO experiment stands out in the field of neutrinoless double beta decay thanks to its unique tracko-calo design, which promises background rejection capabilities unmatched by other approaches. However, to reach its full potential, a powerful reconstruction algorithm is needed in order to detect the elusive decay. Withing the presented work, we have developed the first version of the reconstruction software based on the application of the Legendre transform. In the thesis we demonstrate its power and the opportunities for improvement.
