Experimental Efforts on Very High-Energy Cosmic Rays and their Interactions - Conference Summary

Abstract

Progress reported during the XV International Symposium on Very High-Energy Cosmic-Ray Interactions is summarized. Emphasize is given to experimental work. The actual status, recent results, and their implications on the present understanding of the origin of high-energy cosmic-rays and their interactions are discussed.
