Various hadronic interaction models were used in extensive air showers simulations. This resulted in ambiguous estimation of primary energy, cosmic ray flux intensity, mass composition, etc. Several revisions of models have been made recently; for example, third major version of QGSjet II (QGSjet II
The three hadronic interaction models DPMJET 2.55, QGSJET 01, and SIBYLL 2.1, implemented in the air shower simulation program CORSIKA, are compared in the energy range of interest for the Pierre Auger experiment. The model dependence of relevant quantities in individual hadronic interactions and a
The contemporaneous measurement of TeV muons in deep underground laboratories and of the e.m. component at the surface allows checking the hadron interaction models and the propagation codes used in EAS experiments in a primary energy range 10-50 TeV in which the primary spectra are measured by dire
