Scientific paper

We present preliminary results on the energy spectrum and composition of cosmic rays between 0.3 and 30 PeV from the CASA-BLANCA experiment. The technique relies on measurements of the lateral distribution of air shower Cherenkov light. It is shown that conversion of the experimental data to a mean depth of shower maximum is highly independent of the choice of nuclear interaction model. The mean primary mass is also inferred directly from the measurements, and ÐÒ plotted for a number of hadronic interaction models.
