Abstract
Based on the CORSIKA simulations of inclined extensive air sowers with proton and iron as primary particles, we have calculated the rise time ( t 1 / 2 ) of detected pulses in particle detectors. We performed the simulations for six different zenith angles between 20° and 53°. It is shown that the rise time has a strong dependence on the core location, zenith, and azimuth angle of a primary particle. Moreover, azimuthal asymmetries of the rise time, which is a characteristic of inclined extensive air showers, are investigated. The potential use of this parameter for mass discrimination of cosmic rays is also discussed.
