On some aspects of Age Parameter associated with Exten-sive Air Showers having energy ranging from approx10~(14)eV to approx10~(20)eV

摘要

In this paper some important characteristics of age parameter(s) associated with air showers viz.(i) variation of s with primary energy E_p,(ii) variation of s with atmospheric depth beyond shower maximum,(iii) variation of s with zenith angle for different E_p are studied on the basis of experimental observations of the North Bengal University,India;Gauhati University,Guwahati,India;Yakutsk,Russia etc.The observed characteristics are analysed with the help of the existing theoretical models.Results obtained are expected to throw some light on identification of the primary particle.
