Abstract
The article discusses the extensive air shower (EAS) of particles that is produced from high-energy cosmic ray. Topics mentioned include the types of showering such as hadronic and electromagnetic, use of scintillators to observe the secondary particle, and the experiment that aim to observe showering and show the particles production in an absorber which uses three scintillators, the same type used on Astrophysics Research with Cosmics High School Project.
