CORSIKA Shower Movies



The CORSIKA shower movies are animated .gif files and should be viewable with ordinary web browsers by clicking with the left button on the indicated file in the left column. If you want to install a movie on your own host (for faster movements), click with the right button to download the source file; these downloaded files are visualized on Linux installations by `gifview -a filename.gif' or `xanim filename.gif'.

The movies have been created by J. Oehlschläger and R. Engel, Institut für Kernphysik, Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe.
You must respect the copy rights and declare the author's names and the source if you embed a movie in your application.
