Description

The disadvantages of a Cherenkov photographic detector applied to investigate the composition of cosmic radiation by Z values are considered. It is shown that the use of a lens-raster radiator makes it possible to reduce considerably the requirements to photo layer sensitivity, to simplify the determination of the velocity and the direction of relativistic particles and to search for the Dirac monopole more reliably.
