QGSJET-II: towards reliable description of very high energy hadronic interactions
S. Ostapchenko
Since a number of years the QGSJET model has been successfully used by different groups in the field of high energy cosmic rays. Current work is devoted to the first general update…
QGSJET-II: results for extensive air showers
S. Ostapchenko
The new hadronic Monte Carlo model QGSJET-II is applied for extensive air shower (EAS) calculations. The obtained results are compared to the predictions of the original QGSJET and…
First Results of Fast One-dimensional Hybrid Simulation of EAS Using CONEX
T. Pierog, M. K. Alekseeva, T. Bergmann +8
A hybrid simulation code is developed that is suited for fast one-dimensional simulations of shower profiles, including fluctuations. It combines the Monte Carlo simulation of high…
Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays: Some General Features, and Recent Developments Concerning Air Shower Computations
K. Werner, V. Chernatkin, R. Engel +3
We present an introductory lecture on general features of cosmic rays, for non-experts, and some recent developments concerning cascade equations for air shower developments.
Primary Proton Spectrum of Cosmic Rays measured with Single Hadrons
T. Antoni, KASCADE Collaboration
The flux of cosmic-ray induced single hadrons near sea level has been measured with the large hadron calorimeter of the KASCADE experiment. The measurement corroborates former resu…
