Title: Influence of the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect on the features of extensive air showers

Journal Article · · Physics of Atomic Nuclei
OSTI ID:183734

The influence of the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal (LPM) effect on the features of extensive air showers (EAS) is studied. The development of hadronic cascades is described in the quark-gluon string model. It is shown that the LPM effect does not exert a significant influence on EAS features up to energies of 10{sup 20} eV. 19 refs., 2 figs.
