Abstract
The NEVOD-EAS array is now being installed at MEPhI to determine the sizes, directions of arrival, and positions of the axes of extensive air showers (EAS), different components of which are recorded by the detectors of the NEVOD experimental complex. The central part of the NEVOD-EAS array, which contains four clusters of scintillation detector stations designed to record a shower’s electron–photon component, was created and put into operation in 2015. A description of the shower array measuring system and the results from reconstructing extensive air showers recorded in the first 49-day series of experiments are presented.
