Energy spectra of charged hadronic and muonic cascades in atmosphere

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

We analyse the integral spectrum of charged hadrons at mountain level and the differential spectrum of muons at sea level, solving the diffusion equations with energy-dependent interaction mean free paths and mean nucleonic inelasticity.
