DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Dr. AMBROSIO\, Michelangelo (INFN Napoli)\nThe muon 
 longitudinal profile along the shower axis is strictly connected to the pr
 imary nature and primary hadronic interaction with air nuclei. The detecti
 on of muonic component inside showers generated by Very High Energy Cosmic
  Rays provides a very powerful tool for sensing high energy interactions b
 etween cosmic ray particles and air molecules. Fundamental parameters as t
 he interaction cross section\, inelasticity\, hadron production and multip
 licity can be measured comparing the development of shower electromagnetic
  component with that of muonic component. Since 1992 a method has been dev
 eloped to combine the muon arrival direction in a ground based array for c
 osmic ray detection with their arrival delay respect to the shower axis in
  the shower core. This combination permits to select high energy muons wea
 kly scattered from atmosphere and reconstruct their height of production w
 ith good accuracy. In this talk we discuss on the possibility to realize a
  “dual” apparatus able to detect both electromagnetic and muonic compo
 nents at primary energy greater than 10^17.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contr
