Scientific paper

The experimental results of the KASCADE Extensive Air Shower experiment have been searched for events which might be attributed to high energy primary gamma rays. The observed data are compared with simulated gamma showers. Events with a very low muon to electron ratio, a smooth lateral electron distribution and an age characteristic of gamma induced events are selected. This contribution describes the applied methods. So far only a very small fraction of the KASCADE results has been studied and no positive identification can yet be claimed. .
