The KASCADE-Grande experiment: measurements of the all-particle energy spectrum of cosmic rays
Abstract
The all-particle energy spectrum as measured by the KASCADE-Grande experiment for E = 1016 - 1018 eV is presented within the framework of the QGSJET II/FLUKA hadronic interaction models. Three different methods were applied based on the muon size and the total number of charged particles individually and in combination. From the study it is found that the spectrum cannot be completely described by a smooth power law due to the presence of characteristic features.
