Title: Time distribution of EAS with E>10/sup 14/ eV

Journal Article · · Chin. Phys.; (United States)
OSTI ID:5937489

We have observed the arrival times of EAS initiated by cosmic rays of E>10/sup 14/ eV using the EAS array in Beijing. The distribution of arrival time intervals of EAS with E>2.6 x 10/sup 14/ eV is considerably higher than the exponential distribution in the region of time intervals t<21 second. It is suggested that a time correlation component is probably present in the EAS events.
