A new method to measure the attenuation of hadrons in extensive air showers

W. D. Apel

Extensive air showers are generated through interactions of high-energy cosmic rays impinging the Earth's atmosphere. A new method is described to infer the attenuation of hadrons…

Test of the hadronic interaction model EPOS with air shower data

Grande Collaboration, W. D. Apel

Predictions of the hadronic interaction model EPOS~1.61 as implemented in the air shower simulation program CORSIKA are compared to observations with the KASCADE experiment. The in…

Comparison of measured and simulated lateral distributions for electrons and muons with KASCADE

KASCADE Collaboration, W. D. Apel

Lateral distributions for electrons and muons in extensive air showers measured with the array of the KASCADE experiment are compared to results of simulations based on the high-en…

KASCADE measurements of energy spectra for elemental groups of cosmic rays: Results and open problems

KASCADE Collaboration, T. Antoni

A composition analysis of KASCADE air shower data is performed by means of unfolding the two-dimensional frequency spectrum of electron and muon numbers. Aim of the analysis is the…

Geometric structures in hadronic cores of extensive air showers observed by KASCADE

KASCADE Collaboration, T. Antoni

The geometric distribution of high-energy hadrons >100 GeV in shower cores measured with the KASCADE calorimeter is analyzed. The data are checked for sensitivity to hadronic inter…
