The maximum number of particles in a 10 20 eV proton air shower exceeds 10 11 . Full simulations are no longer feasible and tracking of a representative sub-sample of particles (so-called ''thinning'') has to be introduced. The paper describes the physical and mathematical basis of the thinning algorithms and demonstrates how different thinning methods can be compared. A...
