Abstract

The sensitivity of the lateral distribution of the EAS electron component to variations in the atmospheric temperature profile is investigated. An approach developed by the authors on the basis of the variational theory of sensitivity is used to solve the problem. The differential sensitivity coefficients of the lateral distribution of EAS electrons to variations in the temperature profile are obtained for the first time. A method of adjusting a ground-based EAS array’s data for the temperature effect is proposed.
