Characteristics of extensive air showers around the energy threshold for ground-particle-based $$\gamma $$ γ -ray observatories
Abstract Very-high-energy $$\gamma $$ γ -ray astronomy based on the measurement of air shower particles at ground-level has only recently been established as a viable approach, complementing the well established air Cherenkov technique. This approach requires high (mountain) altitudes and very high...
