Measurement of the Radiation Energy in the Radio Signal of Extensive Air Showers as a Universal Estimator of Cosmic-Ray Energy
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, Alexander Aab, Pedro Abreu +447
We measure the energy emitted by extensive air showers in the form of radio emission in the frequency range from 30 to 80 MHz. Exploiting the accurate energy scale of the Pierre Au…
Measurement of the cosmic ray spectrum above eV using inclined events detected with the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, Alexander Aab, Pedro Abreu +461
A measurement of the cosmic-ray spectrum for energies exceeding eV is presented, which is based on the analysis of showers with zenith angles greater than $60^{\…
Energy Estimation of Cosmic Rays with the Engineering Radio Array of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, Alexander Aab, Pedro Abreu +448
The Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) is part of the Pierre Auger Observatory and is used to detect the radio emission of cosmic-ray air showers. These observations are compared…
The Pierre Auger Observatory: Contributions to the 33rd International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC 2013)
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, Alexander Aab, Pedro Abreu +495
Contributions of the Pierre Auger Collaboration to the 33rd International Cosmic Ray Conference, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, July 2013
Wavelets Applied to the Detection of Point Sources of UHECRs
Rafael A. Batista, Ernesto Kemp, Rogerio M. de Almeida +1
In this work we analyze the effect of smoothing maps containing arrival directions of cosmic rays with a gaussian kernel and kernels of the mexican hat wavelets of orders 1, 2 and…
Detection of Point Sources in Cosmic Ray Maps using the Mexican Hat Wavelet Family
Rafael Alves Batista, Ernesto Kemp, Bruno Daniel
An analysis of the sensitivity of gaussian and mexican hat wavelet family filters to the detection of point sources of ultra-high energy cosmic rays was performed. A source embedde…
