Description

The approximation function that makes it possible to describe the lateral distribution function (LDF) of Cherenkov light of individual extensive air showers (EAS) from various primary nuclei with energies of 1-100 PeV and zenith angles up to 20 degrees with an accuracy better than 5% in the distance range 0-500 meters from the shower axis was found. Initially the approximation was intended for processing the events of the SPHERE-2 experiment, but its capabilities are clearly wider. A comparison was made with a simpler approximating function used in the SPHERE-2 processing and with the function used by the TAIGA experiment.
