Scientific paper

Based on the knowledge of the nature of primary cosmic rays inferred from the observations of gamma-ray family events with the large-scale emulsion chamber experiments at Mt. Fuji and at Mt. Kanbala, a three-dimensional Monte Carlo simulation of high-energy multiple-muon events has been carried out. By comparing the simulation results with the presently available observed ones, it is concluded that the hypothesis for the composition of primary cosmic rays being heavy-nuclei dominant, given from the analysis of gamma-ray family events, is quite consistent with the observed results on the lateral spread of multiple-muon events.
