Combined fit of spectrum and composition data as measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +397

We present a combined fit of a simple astrophysical model of UHECR sources to both the energy spectrum and mass composition data measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory. The fit h…

A targeted search for point sources of EeV photons with the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +397

Simultaneous measurements of air showers with the fluorescence and surface detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory allow a sensitive search for EeV photon point sources. Several…

Testing Hadronic Interactions at Ultrahigh Energies with Air Showers Measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +435

Ultrahigh energy cosmic ray air showers probe particle physics at energies beyond the reach of accelerators. Here we introduce a new method to test hadronic interaction models with…

Search for ultrarelativistic magnetic monopoles with the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +411

We present a search for ultra-relativistic magnetic monopoles with the Pierre Auger Observatory. Such particles, possibly a relic of phase transitions in the early universe, would…

Ultrahigh-energy neutrino follow-up of Gravitational Wave events GW150914 and GW151226 with the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +410

On September 14, 2015 the Advanced LIGO detectors observed their first gravitational-wave (GW) transient GW150914. This was followed by a second GW event observed on December 26, 2…

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…

Azimuthal asymmetry in the risetime of the surface detector signals of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +436

The azimuthal asymmetry in the risetime of signals in Auger surface detector stations is a source of information on shower development. The azimuthal asymmetry is due to a combinat…

Entanglement breaking channels and entanglement sudden death

Laura T. Knoll, Christian T. Schmiegelow, Osvaldo Jiménez Farías +2

The occurrence of entanglement sudden death in the evolution of a bipartite system depends on both the initial state and the channel responsible for the evolution. An extreme case…
