A study on the lateral distribution of Cherenkov light in extensive air showers
The dependence of the lateral distribution of Cherenkov light in simulated extensive air showers to the energy and the mass of the primary cosmic rays has been studied. It has been shown that a previous claim about mass independent proportionality of shower energy to the total Cherenkov photon number is not valid in energies below EEAS ~ 1014 eV. We have found that the core distance of the so c...

متن کامل30TH INTERNATIONAL COSMIC RAY CONFERENCE Lateral distribution and the energy determination of showers along the ankle
The normalization constant of the lateral distribution function (LDF) of an extensive air shower is a monotonous (almost linear) increasing function of the energy of the primary. Therefore, the interpolated signal at some fixed distance from the core can be calibrated to estimate the energy of the shower. There is, somehow surprisingly, a reconstructed optimal distance, ropt, at which the effec...
متن کاملSeparation of Gamma and Proton Showers ( 1 � 104 TeV ) using the Lateral Distribution of
A simulation of the development of and hadron showers in the energy range 1 ? 10 4 TeV has been carried out. Radial distributions of the Cerenkov light detected at observatory depths ranging from 500 to 1000 g=cm 2 have been studied. Capabilities of the angle integrating Cerenkov technique for separation of and proton initiated showers as a function of the observation altitude are discussed.
متن کاملMeasurements of the Lateral Distribution of the Muon Component of Extensive Air Showers Underground
The ALEPH detector at LEP has been supplemented with five scintillator stations to measure the muon component of cosmic ray showers underground. We report the measurements of coincidences over distances up to about 1 km which are sensitive to the forward production of hadronic interactions and the chemical composition of primary cosmic rays in the energy range around 10 eV. The results are comp...
