Abstract

We calculated the pulses of the Cherenkov light of extensive atmospheric showers in Cherenkov radiation detectors at the Yakutsk array in the framework of the QGSJET-II model. It is shown that the calculated width of a pulse of Cherenkov light in a vertical proton-induced shower of energy of 1018–1020 eV increases from 50 ns at a distance of 200 m from the shower axis to 700 ns at a distance of 1 km.
