- Abstract
Regular measurements of radio emission produced by relativistic air shower particles were started at the Yakutsk array in 1986. After monitoring of the background noise in the array area, the frequency of 30–35 MHz was chosen, because noise level is minimal in this frequency range. During this time, air showers with highest energies of 100 EeV were registered. By means of hybrid measurements of charged particles, Cherenkov light and radio emission, it was shown that signal amplitude proportional to air shower energy and shape of lateral distribution at sea level correlates with the depth of maximum development. By these characteristics, the atomic weight of primary particles that generated air shower is estimated within QGSjetII-04 framework simulation.
