摘要
Three-dimensional Monte Carlo calculations have been performed on the development of the hadronic component of extensive air showers using a semi-empirical model of high-energy nuclear interactions. Results include integral energy spectra and lateral distribution of nuclear active particles as well as total hadronic energy flux. The probability of multi-core showers is discussed. The contribution of pionization tends to mask the dependence of this probability on primary atomic number. Fluctuations of total and central hadronic energy flux are investigated. Maps of hadronic energy flux in the core region of individual showers are presented.
