Calculation of secondary particles produced by the interaction of cosmic rays with the nuclei of Earth's atmosphere pose important requirements to particle production models. Here we summarize the important features of hadronic simulations, stressing the importance of the so called "microscopic" approach, making explicit reference to the case of th...

... shower simulations in atmosphere have been compared also to the most recent hadron spectra at different latitudes and altitudes, obtaining remarkable agreement. As an example, in fig. 4 we compare MonteCarlo results to the hadron flux measured with the KASKADE experiment [36]. Figure 3. Double differential cross section for pi + (left) and π − (right) production for 450 GeV/c protons on a 10 cm thick Be target (data from ref. [24] and [25]). Data are given as a function of θ lab and for different momentum bins. From ...
