The electron component of large EAS
Description
A large-area neon flash-tube detector has been used to measure the density of electrons occurring in EAS detected at Haverah Park for shower size 0.29< rho 500<1.7. Comparison of the total charged particle lateral density distribution with that of the muon component is made. The response of the flash tubes is also compared with that from neighbouring 1.2 m deep water Cerenkov tanks.
