The angular distribution of showers produced by nucleonnucleon and nucleon-nuclei interactions were studied using the two-center model. The relations of anisotropy, particle energy, multiplicity, and numbers of gray and black tracks were analyzed. It is shown that the anisotropy increases with increased primary particle energy in nucleon-nucleon and nucleon-nuclei showers. The angular distribution anisotropy depends on the ns multiplicity; at E > 10/sup 12/ ev it increases and at E < 10/sup 12/ ev it diminishes in nucleonnucleon and increases in nucleon-nuclei showers. The fast particle angular distribution anisotropy depends on the magnitude of the target nucleus. (R.V.J.)
