“…Based on the measured shower size by KASCADE-Grande only, we reconstructed the primary energy spectrum [11] using the energy calibration with the new SIBYLL 2.3d model, where the atmospheric attenuation effects are corrected by using the Constant Intensity Cut (CIC) method.…”

KASCADE and its extension array of KASCADE-Grande were devoted to measure individual air showers of cosmic rays in the primary energy range of 100 TeV to 1 EeV. The experiment has substantially contributed to investigate the energy spectrum and mass composition of cosmic rays in the transition region from galactic to extragalactic origin of cosmic rays as well as to quantify the characteristics of hadronic interaction models in the air shower development through validity tests using the multi-detector information from KASCADE-Grande. Although the data accumulation was completed in 2013, data analysis is still continuing. Recently, we investigated the reliability of the new hadronic interactions models of the SIBYLL version 2.3d only with the energy spectra from the KASCADE-Grande data. The evolution of the muon content of high energy air showers in the atmosphere is studied as well, using EPOS-LHC, SIBYLL 2.3, QGSJET-II-04 and SIBYLL 2.3c. In this talk, recent results from KASCADE-Grande and the update of the KASCADE Cosmic Ray Data Centre (KCDC) will be discussed.

“…The aim of the project KCDC is the installation and establishment of a public data centre for high-energy astroparticle physics based on the data of the KASCADE experiment (logo of KCDC, see Figure 1). KASCADE and KASCADE-Grande [1,2] -as initial data providerwas a quite successful large detector array for measuring high-energy cosmic rays via the detection of extensive air showers (EAS). KASCADE recorded data during more than 20 years on site of the KIT, Campus North, Karlsruhe, Germany (formerly Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe) at 49.1 • N, 8.4 • E, and 110 m a.s.l.…”

KCDC, the 'KASCADE Cosmic-ray Data Centre', is a web-based interface where initially the scientific data from the completed air-shower experiment KASCADE-Grande was made available for the astroparticle community as well as for the interested public. Over the past 7 years, we have continuously extended the data shop with various releases and increased both the number of detector components from the KASCADE-Grande experiment and the data sets and corresponding simulations. With the latest releases we added a new and independent data shop for a specific KASCADE-Grande event selection and by that created the technology for integrating further data shops and data of other experiments, like the data of the air-shower experiment MAKET-ANI in Armenia. In addition, we made available educational examples how to use the data, more than 100 cosmic ray energy spectra from various experiments, and recently attached a public server with access to Jupyter notebooks. In this paper we present a brief history of KCDC, the main features of the recent release as well as will discuss future development plans.
