摘要
A subroutine package, ANAAS, is presented, which contains lateral distribution of particles in air showers in air showers induced by protons or gamma rays and a prescription for estimating the incident energy of air showers observed with surface arrays. The lateral distributions have been constructed taking the detector into account. Two detector structures are considered. One is to represent the most typical plastic scintillator detectors (3.5 cm under 0.1 cm steel) and the other is the same one with an additional lead sheet (0.5 cm) on the steel. The latter is being popularly used in arrays for high-energy gamma-ray point-sources observations.
