摘要：
A Limited Streamer Tube (LST) detector system has been installed at the KASCADE-Grande experiment to study the Extensive Air Showers (EAS) muon component above a threshold of 2.4 GeV. ne extended area of 255 m(2) of the LST and the fine granularity of detection enables a detailed study of the muon spatial distribution in the very central zone of the air shower. A dedicated, fractal based analysis has been developed to take advantage of the observables of this detector setup. The sensitivity on cosmic rays mass and energy discrimination has been verified, based on 1.5 years of data collection by the KASCADE experiment.
