Abstract
The albedo of photons in electromagnetic cascades is simulated. A simp le model of back current photons generation and propagation in electro magnetic cascades is considered which satisfactorily describes the gen eral features of albedo behavior. The contribution to the photonic alb edo of electromagnetic subshowers generated by high energy gamma-quant a from pi0 decays in the hadron initiated cascade is evalulated.
