Precise measurement of the absolute fluorescence yield of the 337 nm band in atmospheric gases
AIRFLY Collaboration, M. Ave, M. Bohacova +29
A measurement of the absolute fluorescence yield of the 337 nm nitrogen band, relevant to ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) detectors, is reported. Two independent calibrations…
Antennas for the Detection of Radio Emission Pulses from Cosmic-Ray induced Air Showers at the Pierre Auger Observatory
P. Abreu, M. Aglietta, M. Ahlers +512
The Pierre Auger Observatory is exploring the potential of the radio detection technique to study extensive air showers induced by ultra-high energy cosmic rays. The Auger Engineer…
The Rapid Atmospheric Monitoring System of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +508
The Pierre Auger Observatory is a facility built to detect air showers produced by cosmic rays above 10^17 eV. During clear nights with a low illuminated moon fraction, the UV fluo…
