Abstract: | Recording radio emission from extensive air showers (EASs) is considered now as a new promising method for detecting ultra-high energy (E 0 > 5 × 1016 eV) cosmic rays. The results of calculation of EAS radio emission at frequencies from 40 to 80 MHz in the EAS energy range E 0 = 1014–1017 eV are reported here, and the possibilities of determining EAS parameters from the radio emission lateral distribution are discussed. |
