Radio Emission of the Electron Charge Excess from Extensive Air Showers Taking into Account the Geomagnetic Field in a Kinetic Model
The radio emission of the electron charge excess from an extensive air shower (EAS) is calculated taking into account the geomagnetic field in a kinetic model. Unlike the previous macroscopic models, the emission of each excess electron of the shower disk is calculated taking into account their longitudinal and transverse current caused by the Lorentz force. The spatial distribution of excess electrons in the disk, their energy spectrum, multiple scattering, and evolution of the disk along the EAS track is taken into account.
