Résumé
Abstract

Cet article est un résumé des méthodes utilisées pour la mesure de l'énergie des gerbes atmosphériques créées par les rayons cosmiques d'ultra-haute énergie (à partir de l'EeV, domaine de l'expérience japonaise AGASA).

This article gives a summary of the primary energy estimation by observing ultra-high energy cosmic ray induced extensive air showers (down to the EeV energies – the energy range of the Japanese AGASA experiment).
