Abstract

Using the random search method, the solution of the inverse problem of event reconstruction when detecting ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECR) in more complex LORD experiment versions using two lunar satellites revolving in almost the same orbit, but spaced to a sufficient distance, is considered. In the case of the detection by two satellites, the time delay between signals of either satellite is also measured. This makes it possible to achieve a higher accuracy in the solution of the inverse problem of event reconstruction and to determine the direction to the particle source, which is impossible in experiments with one satellite.
