Abstract: | Various components of Cherenkov radiation are calculated which occur during development of a shower with a primary energy
of 1020 eV above the ocean surface. It is shown that, under conditions of the TUS experiment, a flare of the reflected Cherenkov
photons at the end of the fluorescence track can be identified in showers with zenith angles up to 20°. |
