The particle distribution in BRAN for 10cm thick tungsten block is used
Summary of talks • 1. The LHCf experiment can resolve the highest energy cosmic ray problems. • 2. Present configuration of LHCf-BRAN can measure the beam neutral center by both detectors independently. • 3. However installation of the BRAN at the 5th slot will provide us a better result.
