Abstract
Range distribution of high energy muons are calculated by a numerical method taking the fluctuation in energy loss by radiation and direct electron pair production into account. With the obtained distribution, effect of the range fluctuation on the depth-intensity relation of cosmic ray muons is studied and compared with other similar works.Keywords
