Prospects for the detection of gamma rays using Cherenkov telescopes enhanced by a ground array observatory
C. Alispach, A. Araudo, A. Bakalová +67
We study through detailed simulated data and their optimized analysis the expected performance of the Single-Mirror Small-Size imaging atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (SST-1M) pot…
Long-term calibration and validation of stability of the Auger Engineering Radio Array using the diffuse Galactic radio emission
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Abdul Halim, P. Abreu +356
The Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) measures radio emission from high-energy extensive air showers. Consisting of 153 autonomous radio-detector stations spread over \,km$^…
Progress towards stereo observation of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays with Fluorescence detector Array of Single-pixel Telescopes
Shunsuke Sakurai, Justin Albury, Jose Bellido +33
Ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are the most energetic particles ever detected. Cosmic rays that achieve the highest energies are rare, and their flux at Earth is extremely…
AugerPrime: Status and first results
David Schmidt
With the knowledge and statistical precision derived from two decades of measurement, the Pierre Auger Observatory has significantly deepened our understanding of ultra-high-energy…
The SST-1M stereoscopic system
C. Alispach, A. Araudo, M. Balbo +63
The Single-Mirror Small-Size Telescope (SST-1M) is an Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope designed for detecting very high-energy gamma rays. With a compact design achieved thr…
Characterization of atmospheric properties at the future sites of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Jan Ebr, Dušan Mandát, Miroslav Pech +24
Advanced knowledge of the detailed atmospheric properties of both the future sites of the Cherenkov Telescope Array is essential in preparation of the arrival of the first scientif…
