Difference between Air shower (physics) and Tunka experiment

Air shower (physics) vs. Tunka experiment

An air shower is an extensive (many kilometres wide) cascade of ionized particles and electromagnetic radiation produced in the atmosphere when a primary cosmic ray (i.e. one of extraterrestrial origin) enters the atmosphere. The Tunka experiment now named TAIGA (Tunka Advanced Instrument for cosmic ray physics and Gamma Astronomy) measures air showers, which are initiated by charged cosmic rays or high energy gamma rays.

Similarities between Air shower (physics) and Tunka experiment

Air shower (physics) and Tunka experiment have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cherenkov radiation, Cosmic ray, Electron, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Muon, Photomultiplier.

Cherenkov radiation

Cherenkov radiation (sometimes spelled "Cerenkov") is electromagnetic radiation emitted when a charged particle (such as an electron) passes through a dielectric medium at a speed greater than the phase velocity of light in that medium.

Muon

The muon (from the Greek letter mu (μ) used to represent it) is an elementary particle similar to the electron, with an electric charge of −1 e and a spin of 1/2, but with a much greater mass.
