On Sensitivity of Cherenkov Radiation to the Dynamics of High Energy Cosmic Ray Interactions
Abstract
Description
A simulation study of the effects resulting from creation of quark--gluon plasma in high energy collisions of cosmic iron nuclei with the air has been carried out. The Cherenkov light emission has been found to reveal some features of the dynamics of high energy hadronic interactions.
