The muon charge ratio in cosmic ray air showers
H. Rebel, O. Sima, A. Haungs +3
The muon charge ratio of the lateral muon density distributions in single EAS is studied by simulations, in context of recent proposals to measure this observable in coincidence wi…
Applying Shower Development Universality to KASCADE Data
W. D. Apel, A. F. Badea, K. Bekk +31
On basis of the theorem of a universal shower development stating that a hadronically generated extensive air shower is completely described by the primary energy, the position of…
Radio Emission in Atmospheric Air Showers: First Measurements with LOPES-30
P. G. Isar, S. Nehls, LOPES Collaboration
When Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays interact with particles in the Earth's atmosphere, they produce a shower of secondary particles propagating toward the ground. LOPES-30 is an abs…
Detection and imaging of atmospheric radio flashes from cosmic ray air showers
H. Falcke, W. D. Apel, A. F. Badea
The nature of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) at energies >10^20 eV remains a mystery. They are likely to be of extragalactic origin, but should be absorbed within ~50 Mpc th…
Primary Proton Spectrum of Cosmic Rays measured with Single Hadrons
T. Antoni, KASCADE Collaboration
The flux of cosmic-ray induced single hadrons near sea level has been measured with the large hadron calorimeter of the KASCADE experiment. The measurement corroborates former resu…
Astrophysics of the Knee in the Cosmic Ray Energy Spectrum
A. Haungs et al.
A brief review is given on the astrophysics of cosmic rays in the PeV primary energy range, i.e. the region of the knee.
