Abstract

Air shower data registered by the small air shower array at Durham are digitised and stored within 2 ms of an air shower event occurring. The data are decoded and particle densities and the times of arrival of the particles at the detectors are determined. The size, core position and arrival direction of the shower responsible for the event are calculated using the versatile and comprehensive CERN minimising package MINUIT. An event takes on the average 2 s to analyse.
