Abstract

A comparison of the accuracy of reconstruction of the shower size and coordinates of the axes of extensive air showers based on the response of the NEVOD-EAS array are presented. The reconstruction is based on various functions of the lateral distribution of particles. A comparison of the lateral distribution of EAS particles according to MC and experimental data is given.
