Photons in the science of the Pierre Auger Observatory
arXiv:1910.02704
Abstract
In this paper, the connection between Pierre Auger Observatory measurements and photons is discussed. Three cases are presented: the search for photons in the ultrahigh-energy cosmic-ray radiation, the impact of the photon background in the cosmic ray propagation and the role of the ambient photon fields surrounding cosmic accelerators.
