Abstract

The properties of extensive air showers are not inconsistent, as is often claimed, with the assumption that the products of collisions above 1014 eV may be obtained by simple scaling from accelerator energies, provided that hadronic cross sections rise rapidly with energy, and a normal mixture of cosmic-ray nuclei is present.
