Abstract

A new installation is dedicated to the independent evaluation of extensive air shower (EAS) energies detected in the NEVOD-DECOR experiment in the knee region of the energy spectrum. The design for the measuring system of the shower installation is based on clusters of scintillation detectors that are located on the roofs of laboratory buildings at MEPhI (Moscow) and will detect the electromagnetic (for near-vertical showers) and muon (for large zenith angles) EAS components. Features of the measuring system, the system for data acquisition and processing, and the results from investigating the characteristics of a single detector are discussed, along with the algorithm for event formation by the data of separate clusters.
