Abstract
⺠Measurements of CR composition above 1015 eV by Yakutsk EASA are presented. ⺠Interpretation of these results in terms of CR mass composition is given. ⺠Mean logarithm of the CR atomic number has the peak value â¼2.5 achieved at â¼1017 eV. ⺠Then it substantialy decrease within the energy interval 1017 â 1018 eV to â¼1. ⺠This behavior indicate for the transition from galactic CR component to extragalactic at 1017 â 1018 eV.
