✦ Synopsis

Multi-component measurements of extensive air showers are used to study details of hadronic interactions at high energies.

Results of the KASCADE experiment are summarized and limitations of the interpretation of the measurements are pointed out. In addition, requirements are discussed for new measurements of interaction properties by accelerator experiments.

The fine segmented hadron calorimeter of the KASCADE experiment allows to study the hadronic component of extensive air showers. Several hadronic observables are compared with predictions of air shower simulations, using Lhe interaction models VENUS, QGSJET and SIBYLL with the objective to test the
