Description
The knee of cosmic ray spectra may reflect the maximum energy accelerated by galactic cosmic ray sources or the limit of the galaxy's ability to bind cosmic rays. Measurements of individual energy spectra are a crucial tool to understand the origin of the knee. One of the main scientific goals of Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) is measuring the cosmic ray energy spectra and composition from 10 TeV to $\sim$ EeV. In this study, the density of electromagnetic particles measured by electromagnetic detectors (ED) and the density of muons measured by muon detectors (MD) of LHAASO are used to measure the energy and composition of the primary particle. Individual nuclei flux measured with KM2A data will be presented.
