Disentangling the air shower components using scintillator and water Cherenkov detectors

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
We consider a ground array of scintillation and water Cherenkov detectors with the purpose of determining the muon content of air showers. The different response characteristics of these two types of detectors to the components of the air shower provide ...
