✦ Synopsis

By mcasm-ing the duration of EAS leading front interesting data were obtained from the Carpet EAS array at Baksan. These data can be interpreted as an evidence of e,xistence of "double-front" showers on a level of ,,-1%. The only way to find an agreement between data and M-C simulations is to introduce particles before and behind the main EAS disk with a specific time of 15-30 nsec.
