Description

Radio-frequency radiation of extensive air showers (EAS) was investigated at the frequencies in the range of 30-100 MHz. The problem of the EAS electric field is discussed. Experimental data were analyzed. Possible reasons for the experimental data spread were examined. The value of the field intensity of the EAS with the initial energy of 1017 eV observed in the meter range at the distance of approximately 100 m from the shower axis is equal to ''several'' μVxm-1xMHz-1
