Abstract:

On the basis of the Extensive Air Shower data observed by the GAMMA experiment the energy spectra and elemental composition of the primary cosmic rays have been derived in the 1-100 PeV energy range. Reconstruction of the primary energy spectra is carried out in the framework of the SIBYLL and QGSJET interaction models and the hypothesis of the power-law steepening primary energy spectra. All presented results are derived taking into account the detector response, reconstruction uncertainties of EAS parameters and fluctuation of EAS development.
