Čerenkov light in (1011 ÷ 1012) eV EAS: Time dependence of the isophotes and multiple pulses

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

We have calculated with a Monte Carlo method the radial and time dependence of the isophote diagrams for the Čerenkov light in (1011÷l012) eV E.A.S. A possible explanation for the Čerenkov pulse structure (rise time and width) observed with fast techniques is given.

Riassunto

Si è calcolato con il metodo di Monte Carlo la dipendenza radiale e temporale delle isofote per luce Čerenkov da E.A.S. di energia (1011 ÷ 1012) eV. Si dà anche una possibile spiegazione per la struttura degli impulsi Čerenkov (tempo di salita e ampiezza) osservata sperimentalmente con tecniche elettroniche veloci.
