This paper presents the set of measurements of ultra-high energy air shower radio emission at frequency 32 MHz in period of 2008-2012. The showers are selected by geomagnetic and azimuth angles and then by the energy in three intervals: 3*10^16 3*10^17 eV, 3*10^17 6*10^17 eV and 6*10^17 5*10^18 eV. In each energy interval average lateral distribution function using mathematically averaged data from antennas with different directions are plotted. In the paper, using experimental data the dependence of radio signal averaged amplitude from geomagnetic angle, the shower axis distance and the energy are determined. Depth of maximum of cosmic ray showers Xmax for the given energy range is evaluated. The evaluation is made according QGSJET model calculations and average lateral distribution function shape.

A spectrum of cosmic rays within energy range 10^15 - 3x10^17 eV was derived from the data of the small Cherenkov setup, which is a part of the Yakutsk complex EAS array. In this, work a new series of observation is covered. These observations lasted from 2000 till 2010 and resulted in increased number of registered events within interval 10^16 - 10^18 eV, which in turn made it possible to reproduce cosmic ray spectrum in this energy domain with better precision. A sign of a thin structure is observed in the shape of the spectrum. It could be related to the escape of heavy nuclei from our Galaxy. Cosmic ray mass composition was obtained for the energy region 10^16 - 10^18 eV. A joint analysis of spectrum and mass composition of cosmic rays was performed. Obtained results are considered in the context of theoretical computations that were performed with the use of hypothesis of galactic and meta-galactic origin of cosmic rays.
The final analysis of the Extensive Air Shower (EAS) maximum X_max depth distribution derived from the data of Tunka-25 atmospheric Cherenkov light array in the energy range 3.10^15 - 3.10^16 eV is presented. The perspectives of X_max studies with th e new Cherenkov light array Tunka-133 of 1 km^2 area, extending the measurements up to 10^18 eV, are discussed.
In this paper, we present results obtained from the measurements of radio emission at frequency of 32 MHz with energy more than 10$^{19}$ eV. Generalized formula that describe lateral distribution and depends on main characteristic of the air showers : energy E$_0$ and depth of maximum X$_{max}$ was derived. The formula has a good agreement with data at average and large distances from shower axis. Employing the ratio of radio emission amplitude at distances 175 m and 725 m we determined the depth of maximum X$_{max}$ for air shower with energy 3.7$cdot$10$^{19}$ eV, which in our case is equal to X$_{max}$ = 769$pm$34g$cdot$cm$^{-2}$.
The ratio of the muon flux density to charged particle flux density at distances of 300 and 600 m from the shower axis ($rhom(300)/rhos(300)$ and $rhom(600)/rhos(600)$) is measured. In addition, the energy dependence of $rhom(1000)$ is analysed for s howers with energies above $10^{18}$ eV. A comparison between the experimental data and calculations performed with the QGSJET model is given for the cases of primary proton, iron nucleus and gamma- ray. We conclude that the showers with $Ege3times10^{18}$ eV can be formed by light nuclei with a pronounced fraction of protons and helium nuclei. It is not excluded however that a small part of showers with energies above $10^{19}$ eV could be initiated by primary gamma-rays.
The KASCADE-Grande Muon Tracking Detector enables with high accuracy the measurement of directions of EAS muons with energy above 0.8 GeV and up to 700 m distance from the shower centre. Reconstructed muon tracks are used to investigate muon pseudora pidity (eta) distributions. These distributions are nearly identical to the pseudorapidity distributions of their parent mesons produced in hadronic interactions. Comparison of the eta distributions from measured and simulated showers can be used to test the quality of the high energy hadronic interaction models. In this context a comparison of the QGSJet-II-2 and QGSJet-II-4 model will be shown. The pseudorapidity distributions reflect the longitudinal development of EAS and, as such, are sensitive to the mass of the cosmic rays primary particles. With various parameters of the eta distribution, obtained from the MTD data, it is possible to calculate the mean logarithmic mass of CRs. The results of the <lnA> analysis in the primary energy range 10^{16} eV - 10^{17} eV with the 1st quartile (Q1) of eta distribution will be presented.
