Indication of anisotropy in arrival directions of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays through comparison to the flux pattern of extragalactic gamma-ray sources

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +390

A new analysis of the dataset from the Pierre Auger Observatory provides evidence for anisotropy in the arrival directions of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays on an intermediate angul…

Inferences on Mass Composition and Tests of Hadronic Interactions from 0.3 to 100 EeV using the water-Cherenkov Detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +403

We present a new method for probing the hadronic interaction models at ultra-high energy and extracting details about mass composition. This is done using the time profiles of the…

Spectral Calibration of the Fluorescence Telescopes of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +403

We present a novel method to measure precisely the relative spectral response of the fluorescence telescopes of the Pierre Auger Observatory. We used a portable light source based…

Observation of a Large-scale Anisotropy in the Arrival Directions of Cosmic Rays above eV

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +404

Cosmic rays are atomic nuclei arriving from outer space that reach the highest energies observed in nature. Clues to their origin come from studying the distribution of their arriv…

SimProp v2r4: Monte Carlo simulation code for UHECR propagation

Roberto Aloisio, Denise Boncioli, Armando di Matteo +3

We introduce the new version of SimProp, a Monte Carlo code for simulating the propagation of ultra-high energy cosmic rays in intergalactic space. This version, SimProp v2r4, toge…

Joint Elastic Side-Scattering Lidar and Raman Lidar Measurements of Aerosol Optical Properties in South East Colorado

L. Wiencke, V. Rizi, M. Will +27

We describe an experiment, located in south-east Colorado, USA, that measured aerosol optical depth profiles using two Lidar techniques. Two independent detectors measured scattere…
