CONEX and CORSIKA : a New 3D Hybrid Model for Air Shower Simulation — •Tanguy Pierog, Dieter Heck, and Ralph Engel — Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe, Institut für Kernphysik, Deutschland

The hybrid air shower simulation code CONEX has been implemented as an option in the air shower monte-carlo model CORSIKA. In CONEX, monte-carlo simulation of high energy interactions is combined with a fast numerical solution of cascade equations. Low energy secondary particles can then be tracked within CORSIKA to obtain the lateral extension of the air shower. This allows the fast and realistic simulation of 3D showers at ultra-high energies.
