Abstract
The muon content of EAS detected at Haverah Park has been measured using both shielded scintillators and neon flashtube tracking arrays. The primary energy range covered was from 1015 up to 1020 eV with a muon energy threshold of 300 MeV. The lateral distributions of muon density are fitted to the observed data in each decade of primary energy over appropriate core-distance ranges. In the range 150p16 eV) and for Rp up to approximately 3*1015 eV and then appears to remain constant at higher energies.Keywords
