On the energy determination of extensive air showers through the fluorescence technique
arXiv:astro-ph/0302491 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.67.101303
Abstract
The determination of the shower development in air using fluorescence yield is subject to corrections due to the angular spread of the particles in the shower. This could introduce systematic errors in the energy determination of an extensive air shower through the fluorescence technique.
