The KASCADE-Grande Experiment
Abstract
A scintillator array (Grande) of large collecting area (700m x 700m) has been set up at Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe in Germany to operate jointly with the existing KASCADE multi-detector experiment. The enlarged EAS experiment provides comprehensive observations of cosmic rays in the primary energy range of 0.1 PeV to 1 EeV, i.e. a full coverage of the primary energy region around the knee. Status and capabilities of the KASCADE-Grande experiment are presented.
