Abstract
The 113- water Cherenkov detector at a depth of 1480 m (4200 m water equivalent) in the Homestake Gold Mine, Lead, South Dakota, has been used to study multiple muons with TeV produced in cosmic-ray interactions by primaries of - eV/nucleon. The decoherence curve and multiple-muon rates are presented.
