Scientific paper

A synchronized array of fast photomultipliers has been used to reconstruct the image in Cerenkov light of individual large cosmic-ray showers high in the atmosphere. The details of the images are in agreement with simulations based upon conservative models for cascade development. Observation of the fluctuations of the image between showers may enable the mass of the energetic cosmic rays to be determined
