On the measurement of the proton-air cross section using air shower data

Ralf Ulrich, Johannes Blümer, Ralph Engel +2

The analysis of high-energy air shower data allows one to study the proton-air cross section at energies beyond the reach of fixed target and collider experiments. The mean depth o…
