Autonomous RPCs for a Cosmic Ray ground array
Pedro Assis, Alberto Blanco, Nuno Carolino +15
We report on the behaviour of Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) developed for muon detection in ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) experiments. The RPCs were developed for the MARTA…
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…
The Mob core language and abstract machine (rev 0.2)
Herve Paulino, Luis Lopes
Most current mobile agent systems are based on programming languages whose semantics are difficult to prove correct as they lack an adequate underlying formal theory. In recent yea…
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^{\…
Recovery of HADES drift chambers suffering from Malter-like effects
Christian Wendisch, Christian Muentz, Luis Lopes +2
The central tracking system of the HADES detector, installed at the SIS-18 synchrotron at GSI/Darmstadt (Germany), employs large-area, low-mass drift chambers, featuring Aluminum p…
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…
