摘要：

测量高能宇宙射线引起的大范围空气簇射的射电辐射是LOFAR射电望远镜的关键科学项目之一。LOFar Radboud空气簇射阵列（LORA）已安装在荷兰的LOFAR核心。LORA的主要目的是测量空气簇射的特性，并触发LOFAR无线电天线的读出，以记录广泛的空气簇射。描述了闪烁探测器阵列的实验装置及其性能。

英文摘要：

The measurement of the radio emission from extensive air showers, induced by high-energy cosmic rays is one of the key science projects of the LOFAR radio telescope. The LOfar Radboud air shower Array (LORA) has been installed in the core of LOFAR in the Netherlands. The main purpose of LORA is to measure the properties of air showers and to trigger the read-out of the LOFAR radio antennas to register extensive air showers. The experimental set-up of the array of scintillation detectors and its performance are described.
