- Description
- Atmospheric diffusion of high energy cosmic rays is studied analytically and the obtained integral electromagnetic fluxes are compared with the data measured by emulsion chamber detectors at mountain altitudes. We find a good consistency between them when the average nucleon inelasticity coefficient is varying between 0.50 and 0.65.
