Abstract
We present a description of the new complex installation for the study of extensive air showers which was created at the Tien Shan mountain cosmic ray station, as well as the results of the test measurements made there in 2014-2016. At present, the system for registration of electromagnetic shower component consists of 100 detector points built on the basis of plastic scintillator plates with the sensitive area of 0.25m and 1m, spread equidistantly over 10m space. The dynamic range of scintillation amplitude measurements is currently about , and there is a prospect of it being extended up to 10. The direction of shower arrival is defined by signal delays from a number of the scintillators placed cross-wise at the periphery of the detector system. For the investigation of nuclear active shower components there was created a…
