Abstract content
New SPHERE-2 detector basic parameters are described.
New calorimetric method is used to study the primary cosmic rays energy spectrum and chemical composition at energy region 10 PeV - 1 EeV. The method is practically independent of the particle interaction model. Results of CORSIKA simulation of detector are presented.
Lifted by tied balloon to the 1 km altitude detector will detect EAS Cherenkov light reflected from the snow frozen surface of Baikal lake. First measurements are planned to the beginning of 2008.
