Abstract
Hadronic showers initiated by 0.1-100 TeV protons in the calorimeters of the ANI facility are simulated with the MARS10 code. The longitudin al and lateral distributions of energy deposition for these showers in the ANI and ANI-Prototype calorimeters are calculated. A parametrizat ion for the lateral shower profiles is given. The leakage from the cal orimeters is estimated. The spatial distribution of energy deposition by 1-100 TeV EAS in a scintillation array located 615 g/cm2 deep in th e atmosphere is obtained. The results are compared with the Nishimura- Kamata lateral structure function.
