“…The total cross section for electromagnetic neutron production is proportional to Z 2 , therefore this contribution is more important in high Z -material like lead [112]. The neutron multiplicity in electromagnetic showers can be related to the shower energy E s , and the effective muon energy E μ via [106,187] …”

“…3.4.3 [187]. Depending on the energy ranges, the particles in showers can be divided in three types, according to [106,152,187]: shower hadrons, cascade nucleons, and evaporating neutrons. The sum of all neutrons make the neutron hadroproduction.…”

“…Shower hadrons are mainly charged pions. Above β = 0.7 they maintain the shower by generating new particles [106,152,187]. Below this threshold they start intranuclear cascades of recoiled nucleons with an energy around 150 meV via pion capture, pion-nuclei scattering [106,152,187].…”

Below this threshold they start intranuclear cascades of recoiled nucleons with an energy around 150 meV via pion capture, pion-nuclei scattering [106,152,187]. The recoiled nucleon can start further intranuclear cascades at lower energies via nucleon-nuclei collision until their energy drops below the threshold of β ≈ 0.2 [106,152,187].…”

The series "Springer Theses" brings together a selection of the very best Ph.D. theses from around the world and across the physical sciences. Nominated and endorsed by two recognized specialists, each published volume has been selected for its scientific excellence and the high impact of its contents for the pertinent field of research. For greater accessibility to non-specialists, the published versions include an extended introduction, as well as a foreword by the student's supervisor explaining the special relevance of the work for the field. As a whole, the series will provide a valuable resource both for newcomers to the research fields described, and for other scientists seeking detailed background information on special questions. Finally, it provides an accredited documentation of the valuable contributions made by today's younger generation of scientists.Theses are accepted into the series by invited nomination only and must fulfill all of the following criteria • They must be written in good English.• The topic should fall within the confines of Chemistry, Physics, Earth Sciences, Engineering and related interdisciplinary fields such as Materials, Nanoscience, Chemical Engineering, Complex Systems and Biophysics.
