โฆ Synopsis
The further development of a new approach to explanation of the knee and the ankle appearance, based on heavy short-lived particles production at energies above the knee, is described.
A key role of VHE muons is underlined.
Additional arguments in favour of their influence on results of non-muon experiments are analysed. Possibilities to check this new approach in existing experiments are considered.
