Description

The angular distribution of the Cerenkov radiation (CR) from the electron-photon cascades developing in the atmosphere has been calculated. The possibility of using the CR angular distribution to restore the pattern of longitudinal development of the cascade is analyzed. The CR lateral distribution for narrow-angle detectors has been calculated. (author)
