AN AIR SHOWER PROJECT
The structure and features of a project in Tokyo to study extensive air showers are described. The features which were emphasized for the design of the project include: facility for determination of the size of the shower, the location of the axis, and the angle of incidence for individual showers; and the deviation of each shower from the average, in addition to the study of the averaged nature. The detail of the structure of the shower core has a close connection with the nature of the elementary interaction process. The structure of the electronic component and the N component is studied with emphasis on energy measurement. The existence of an extremely high-energy N particle is important. A description of measurement apparatus and technique is include. (auth)
