Abstract
This paper presents computational results of the spatiotemporal characteristics of Cherenkov light from particles of extensive air showers (EASs) induced by ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECR). These results were obtained by simulating EAS events with the CORSIKA software package. Events were induced by UHECR particles, i.e., protons and iron nuclei with energies of 1015 and 1016 eV. The computational results were compared with experimental data obtained at the Yakutsk EAS array; possible causes of the discrepancy between them are discussed.
