Description

The code SELFAS computes the electric field emitted by the secondary electrons and positrons in air showers initiated by high-energy cosmic rays. SELFAS is based on the shower universality. We will focus on the main successes of the code to explain observations in the range MHz-GHz, and we will insist on the signal emitted by the sudden death of air showers when the front disappear in the ground, in the context of the new EXTASIS experiment.
