The first measurements of the Experiment with MultiMuon Array (EMMA) have
been analyzed for the selection of the Extensive Air Showers (EAS). Test data were recorded
with an underground muon tracking station and a satellite station separated laterally by 10
metres. Events with tracks distributed over all of the tracking detector area and even extending
over to the satellite station are identified as EAS. The recorded multiplicity spectrum of the
events is in general agreement with CORSIKA EAS simulation and demonstrates the array’s
capability of EAS detection.
