Longitudinal Development and the Inelasticity of Extensive Air Showers

Abstract

In the present work some of properties for Extensive Air Showers are discussed. The number of charge particles (N) as a function of primary energy E0 is estimated at the energy range (1013-1016) eV. In longitudinal developments of Extensive Air Showers, the depth of shower at maximum Xmax, was calculated for electromagnetic and hadronioc cascade at the same energy range. The dependence of inelasticity, which is described by the parameter (k), is used for describing the variation of muons numbe
