The longitudinal cascade development of cosmic-ray showers from observations of atmospheric Cerenkov radiation
This thesis is concerned with the measurement of the longitudinal cascade development of large cosmic-ray showers from observations of atmospheric Cerenkov radiation. The purpose of the measurements is to obtain information on the mass composition of the primary cosmic rays and on the gross features...
