Abstract
The pattern recognition algorithm for the PHENIX PbSc electromagnetic calorimeters are presented. The algorithm is based upon energy and impact angle dependent description of the electromagnetic shower shape as measured in the test beam and reproduced in GEANT simulation. The efficiency of the pattern recognition for identification of single and multiple showers is studied and discussed
