Abstract

One of the properties of longitudinal profile development in extensive air showers is depth of shower maximum in atmospheric cascade of particles initiated extensive air showers as a function of the primary energy. Study the characteristics of extensive air showers was fulfilled depending on a Hitler's model. The calculation of depth of shower maximum (X max ) in atmosphere was performed for particles initiated extensive air showers such us protons, photons, iron nuclei, water, carbon, lead, argon and hydrogen in the energy range between 1014 and 1019eV. The comparison between calculated and simulated data of X max was gave a good results for primary proton and iron nuclei.
