摘要
In the larger context of detection of high energy cosmic particles using the radio signal generated by the charge excess in showers developing in a dense medium (the Askar'yan effect) we have developed and analyzed a series of simulations of electromagnetic showers. The chosen material was rock salt, one of the three media proposed for the study of this effect. Influence of the medium's composition and geometry on the shower's profiles and charge excess was investigated. For the simulations we have used GEANT4.9, a C++-based tool for geometry and tracking of particles.
