Аннотация:The KASCADE-Grande observatory was a ground-based air shower array dedicated
to study the energy and composition of cosmic rays in the energy interval E = 1
PeV −1 EeV. The experiment consisted of different detector systems which allowed the
simultaneous measurement of distinct components of air showers (EAS), such as the
muon content. In this contribution, we study the total muon number and the lateral density
distribution of muons in EAS detected by KASCADE-Grande as a function of the
zenith angle and the total number of charged particles. The attenuation length of the
muon content of EAS is also measured. The results are compared with the predictions of
the SIBYLL 2.3 high-energy hadronic interaction model.
