Annotation

A method is suggested for determining the energy of protons and He nuclei (in the energy range over 1 TeV) based on measuring the energy release in the maxima of hadronic cascades induced by these particles in dense matter. The accuracy attainable in energy measurements has been evaluated, and comparison is made between model results and the results obtained in the experiment "Sokol-2".
