چکیده

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 called hump in the lateral distribution of cherenkov light in gamma ray initiated showers is independent from shower energy. the hump disappears in showers with eeas ≳ 1014 ev. finally, a simple model for the lateral cherenkov light lateral distribution has been proposed, which can be fitted to all types of cosmic ray showers. the fit parameters seem to be promising for primary cosmic ray mass discrimination.

Description of Cherenkov light production in high-energy air showers

The shower simulation code CORSIKA has been used to investigate the electron energy and angular distributions in high-energy showers. Based on the universality of both distributions, we develop an analytical description of Cherenkov light emission in extensive air showers, which provides the total number and angular distribution of photons. The parameterisation can be used e.g. to calculate the...

Measurement of the radial distribution of Cherenkov light generated by TeV γ-ray air showers

Using air showers induced by TeV γ-rays from Mrk 501, the radial distribution of Cherenkov light is investigated. The shower geometry is reconstructed from the stereoscopic shower images obtained with the telescopes of the HEGRA IACT system. With the core position known to better than 10 m, the light yield as a function of the distance to the shower axis is derived by comparing event-by-event t...

Measurements 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...
