| Description | The Chicago Air Shower Array (CASA) is a large ground-based scintillation detector [1-4]. It is located at the Dugway Proving Ground is west central Utah, latitude 40°N and mean atmospheric depth 870 g / c m 2. A schematic aerial view of CASA is shown in Fig. 1. Each dot represents one scintillation station of the array. |
