Abstract

The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) is a hybrid extensive air shower (EAS) array with an area of about 1 𝑘𝑚2 at an altitude of 4410 m a.s.l. in Sichuan province, China. It contains three sub-detectors: 1 𝑘𝑚2 array (KM2A) composed of 5195 electromagnetic particle detectors (ED) and muon detectors (MD); water Cerenkov detector array (WCDA) and 18 Wide Field-of-view Cerenkov Telescope Array (WFCTA). One of the main scientific goals is measuring the individual energy spectra of cosmic rays from ~30 TeV to a couple of EeV. The construction of the whole observatory will be completed by the end of 2021. In this paper, a new energy reconstruction method and result based on KM2A simulated nuclei events will be shown.
