M. Tamada :"Extensive comparisons of emulsion chamber data at high mountains with CORSIKA simulations"

Abstract:
Experimental data obtained by emulsion chambers at Pamir and Chacaltaya are compared with simulation calculations using CORSIKA program employing several models for high energy hadronic interactions. Although those models are considered to be based on modern theory and are widely-accepted as standard simulation codes, it is shown no models can explain many of characteristics, hadron-gamma correlation, shower-clusters of small spread, penetrating cascades and so on, observed in the experiments.
