On the development of a mathematical model of cosmic rays showers generated in lead shielding
نویسنده
چکیده
Primary cosmic rays consist of various protons and atomic nuclei capable of penetrating the atmosphere Bombarding with atmospheric nuclei yields secondary particles which continuously collide, resulting in the proliferation of more nucleons These particles consist mainly of protons, neutrons and pions belonging to three distinct groups Bruno Rossi, in 1929, performed an experiment using lead and confirmed secondary cosmic radiation

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 کاملGeomagnetic Field Eect over Azimuth Anisotropy of Cosmic Rays via Study of Primary Particles
Geomagnetic field is a one of the candidates for creation of anisotropy in azimuth distribution of extensive air showers over the entered cosmic rays to the atmosphere. Here we present the question: Is there any azimuth anisotropy flux in the upper level of the atmosphere due to the geomagnetic field over the entered cosmic-rays? The obtained answer is: yes. This investigation showed an agreeme...
متن کاملسطح مقطع طولی در بهمن‌های گسترده هوایی؛ نتایج ضمنی برای مطالعه ترکیب جرمی پرتوهای کیهانی
Nµ/Ne, muon to electron population ratio in extensive air showers at high altitudes has been shown to be a suitable estimator of primary cosmic rays mass composition. This study is based on simulated extensive air showers. The Nµ/Ne ratio has been obtained in 100 depths from the top of the atmosphere to the sea level for different primary particle masses and energies. An empirical relation bet...
متن کاملA Monte Carlo Study on the Shielding Properties of a Novel Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA)/WO3 Composite, Against Gamma Rays, Using the MCNPX Code
Background: In recent years, there has been an increased interest toward non-lead radiation shields consisting of small-sized filler particles doped into polymer matrices. In this paper, we study a new polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/WO3 composite in the presence of high-energy gamma photons through simulation via the Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) simulation code. Materia...

Different high energy interaction models are the applied in CORSIKA code to simulate Extensive Air Showers (EAS) generated by Cosmic Rays (CR). In this work the effects of QGSJET01, QGSJETII, DPMJET, SIBYLL models on Xmax and multiplicity of secondary electrons and muons at observation level are studied.
