Description

A hybrid experiment has been started by the Tibet ASγcollaboration in Tibet, China, since May 2009. It consists of a burst-detector-grid (YAC : Yangbajing Air- shower Core-array) and the Tibet-III AS array. The Tibet-III array is used to measure the total energy and the arrival direction of air-showers, and YAC-I can observe high-energy shower particles in air-shower cores. By comparing the MC data with our experimental data, we examine hadronic interaction models currently used for AS simulation code CORSIKA(ver.7.3500) and the detector simulation code Geant4 (version 9.5). In this paper, the results on the check of interaction models from *10 TeV to 1 PeV energy region will be reported based on the data taken by YAC-I and Tibet-III during the period from May 2009 through February 2010.
