Scientific paper

We search for a consistent view on the RUNJOB experiment and present an alternative analysis based on explicitly reported and published numerical data. Here we show that there is more than one interpretation to the reported observational data. It is demonstrated that, contrary to the wide-spread opinion, the RUNJOB data are not inconsistent with an increase of the average mass near the knee region of the cosmic ray spectrum. Considering very low statistics and systematic uncertainties, especially in the high energy region, we suggest that peculiarities of the methodical origin were the most likely source of those RUNJOB conclusions which contradicted previous observations reported by other groups.
