A: The Experimental Complex (EC) NEVOD includes a number of detectors used to carry out basic research of cosmic rays (CR) and their interactions in the energy range 10 11 -10 19 eV and applied research of the heliosphere, magnetosphere and atmosphere of the Earth by the muonography method which is based on the analysis of spatial-angular variations of the muon flux generated by primary CR particles with energies of 10 9 -10 11 eV. The EC NEVOD is being constantly developed. Nowadays, it consists of three basic groups of experimental facilities unique in the world: the major facilities (Cherenkov water detector NEVOD, calibration telescope system -CTS, coordinate-tracking detector DECOR), the peripheral facilities (extensive air shower array NEVOD-EAS, distributed thermal neutron detector systems PRISMA and URAN), the muon hodoscopes for cosmophysical and geophysical investigations (TEMP and URAGAN). All detectors and installations of the first two groups are combined by a multilevel triggering system and the time synchronization system ensuring timestamping of registered multicomponent events.

One of the best ways for the investigations of the VHE muons spectrum is measuring the spectrum of stochastic energy losses (cascades). IceCube is the detector capable of measuring the cascade spectrum in the energy region between tens of TeV and one PeV where manifestation of the prompt muon production mechanisms is predicted. In events with muon bundles, the longitudinal energy deposit profile reconstructed by means of a maximum likelihood method is analyzed. Cascade energies are estimated for the events in which the highest local energy deposit is much greater than the median energy deposit. The technique of cascade spectrum reconstruction has been tested with MC-simulated events. Criteria of the event selection, cascade parameters estimation accuracy and the efficiency of the spectrum reconstruction are discussed.
