Abstract

Responses of surface and underground scintillation detectors of Yakutsk array are calculated for showers initiated by primary particles with energy E01017  eV within the frameworks of QGSJet01d, QGSJet-II-04, SIBYLL-2.1, and EPOS-LHC hadron interaction models. A new estimation of E0 is obtained with the use of various methods. The resulting energy is lower compared to the obtained with earlier method by a factor of 1.33.
