Abstract

The inverse problem of reconstructing events in the LORD experiment is considered taking into account fuzzy information on the radiation length of lunar regolith over the lunar surface. It is shown that the solution of the inverse problem allows rather accurate diagnostics of the radiation length at various lunar surface points for a significant number of detected individual events.
