Some characteristics of Extensive Air Showers in the energy region of the knee of the cosmic ray spectrum (Eo = 1015 -1016 eV) are discussed, to discriminate its possible "hadronic" from "astrophysical" origin. Within the accuracy of such data, no clear "anomaly" suggesting a non expected behaviour
The key observables of the KASCADE field array are the electron and muon number of extensive air showers. Using the size spectra of these measured quantities and their correlations with energy and primary mass it is possible to reconstruct the energy spectra of individual mass groups. The analysis
