Origin of hump in lateral distribution of Cherenkov photon density generated by gamma cosmic ray and study of its characteristics
Energetic secondary particles in gamma and hadron initiated showers can generate Cherenkov photons. Using CORSIKA code and simulation data, different characteristics of lateral distribution of Cherenkov photon density are studied. In particular, physical origin of these differences and also dependen...
