Description
Summary:	Nucl.Phys.Proc.Suppl.175-176:326-329,2008 A new method to study Extensive Air Shower (EAS) hadronic component is proposed. It is shown that addition of specific detectors for thermal neutron detection to a standard array for EAS study can significantly improve its performance. Results of CORSIKA based Monte Carlo simulations as well as preliminary experimental data are presented. A proposal of novel type of EAS array is given.
