摘要
The new, publicly available Monte Carlo program PRESHOWER is presented. It allows detailed studies on conversion and cascading of UHE photons in the geoniagnetic field. When coupled to a standard air shower simulation program, PRESHOWER enables complete simulations of UHE photon-induced showers.
