Abstract(s)

The electromagnetic and the muonic longitudinal profile at production enclosure important information about the primary particle and the hadronic interactions that rule the shower development. In fact, these two profiles provide two different insights of the shower: the electromagnetic component gives a measurement of the energy and the strength of the neutral pion channel while the muonic profile, being intimately related with the charged mesons decays, can be used as a direct probe for the high energy hadronic interactions.
