Abstract：
In order to investigate both the lateral distribution of Cerenkov light and the pulse time structure depending on the longitudinal development of the shower,a small Cerenkov light array has been built in Huairo.Lateral distributions of Cerenkov light intensity from EAS have been measured using the combined Cerenkov-particle array,for showres in the size range 2×10⁵ to 10⁷ particles.The prelimianary results are in agereement with the results of some recent experimental measurements and theoretical simulations.
