Longitudinal profile of Nµ/Ne in extensive air showers: Implications for cosmic rays mass composition study
Nµ/Ne, muon to electron population ratio in extensive air showers at high altitudes has been shown to be a suitable estimator of primary cosmic rays mass composition. This study is based on simulated extensive air showers. The Nµ/Ne ratio has been obtained in 100 depths from the top of the atmosphe...
