Measurement of Light Emission from Remote Cosmic-Ray Air Showers

Extensive-air-shower trajectories and sizes (numbers of charged particles) have been measured using an optical detection system. Light produced by atmospheric scintillation and Cherenkov emission by shower particles was measured at distances of 0.7 to approximately 10 km. The shower sizes determined...
