Abstract

Simultaneous measurements have been made of the radial (lateral) electron density distribution and the radial muon density distribution at various measured muon energies in the range 2.5–100 GeV in vertically incident EAS in the size range 3.153104 –1.793106 (primary energy range 2.431014 –8.331015 eV) particles detected near sea level. The characteristics of these radial distributions in terms of the measured shower parameters have been determined and used to draw conclusions about the average nuclear mass of the primaries of these EAS.
