Scientific paper
These lecturers were done to introduce the students of the Third School of Cosmic Rays and Astrophysics to the world of Cosmic Rays. In these proceedings, I am covering the basic of what we covered in these lecturers. We discussed also about neutrino physics, gamma ray physics and detection of cosmic rays, but we are not covering these last topics, since are the main topics of other lecturers of the School. We include in these proceedings an introduction to the importance and history of the cosmic rays, a description of the spectrum of the cosmic rays, the geomagnetic effects, acceleration mechanisms, extensive air shower generation and the physical processes involved, resulting in the explanation of a toy model of the development of the air shower.
