Scientific paper

The CODALEMA experiment detects the cosmic air showers with an hybrid detector composed of an array of scintillators and an array of antennas triggered by the particle array. We will first describe the experiment and the data analysis then we will focus on the sky distribution of the events detected by the antennas which presents a strong asymmetry. We will show that this asymmetry is well described and quantified at first order by an emission of the shower electric field given by the cross product of the shower axis with the geomagnetic field vector. The physical origin of this term is explained in another talk in this conference.
