New Simple Method for Analysis of Extensive Air Showers

Cosmic rays have valuable information about universe surroundings us. Finding energy, mass and arrival direction of primary cosmic ray particle are the most important aspects of extensive air shower studies. In order to determine these parameters, arrival direction and core position of extensive air showers should be determined at first. In this article, a new method has been introduced that utilizes arrival time information of secondary particles of extensive air showers for finding their core location and correcting plane wave front approximation so that calculate the arrival direction of extensive air showers. This method does not need number sensitive detectors-detectors which are sensitive to the number of crossing particlesand consequently there is no need for lateral distribution models. This model has been developed by analysis of simulated events generated by CORSIKA package.
