Ray tracing simulations of bending magnet sources with SHADOW4
Manuel Sanchez del Rio, Howard A. Padmore
We explain the algorithm employed in SHADOW4 to generate bending magnet sources. We provide an overview of the fundamental equations used to calculate the spectral and angular dist…
Cosmological implications of photon-flux upper limits at ultra-high energies in scenarios of Planckian-interacting massive particles for dark matter
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +374
Using the data of the Pierre Auger Observatory, we report on a search for signatures that would be suggestive of super-heavy particles decaying in the Galactic halo. From the lack…
First light of BEaTriX, the new testing facility for the modular X-ray optics of the ATHENA mission
S. Basso, B. Salmaso, D. Spiga +35
The Beam Expander Testing X-ray facility (BEaTriX) is a unique X-ray apparatus now operated at the Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF), Osservatorio Astronomico di Brera (OAB)…
Limits to gauge coupling in the dark sector set by the non-observation of instanton-induced decay of Super-Heavy Dark Matter in the Pierre Auger Observatory data
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +374
Instantons, which are non-perturbative solutions to Yang-Mills equations, provide a signal for the occurrence of quantum tunneling between distinct classes of vacua. They can give…
Extraction of the Muon Signals Recorded with the Surface Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory Using Recurrent Neural Networks
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +370
The Pierre Auger Observatory, at present the largest cosmic-ray observatory ever built, is instrumented with a ground array of 1600 water-Cherenkov detectors, known as the Surface…
The FRAM robotic telescope for atmospheric monitoring at the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +377
FRAM (F/Photometric Robotic Atmospheric Monitor) is a robotic telescope operated at the Pierre Auger Observatory in Argentina for the purposes of atmospheric monitoring using stell…
Calibration of the underground muon detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +370
To obtain direct measurements of the muon content of extensive air showers with energy above eV, the Pierre Auger Observatory is currently being equipped with an underg…
Cosmic-ray anisotropies in right ascension measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +373
We present measurements of the large-scale cosmic-ray anisotropies in right ascension, using data collected by the surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory over more…
Probing the origin of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays with neutrinos in the EeV energy range using the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +389
Neutrinos with energies above eV are detectable with the Surface Detector Array of the Pierre Auger Observatory. The identification is efficiently performed for neutrinos…
About the coherent fraction of synchrotron emission
Manuel Sanchez del Rio
Coherent fraction is a concept widely used in the synchrotron radiation community. Here I discuss the meaning of coherent fraction, an accurate way to define it, and the different…
Search for signatures of magnetically-induced alignment in the arrival directions measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +496
We present the results of an analysis of data recorded at the Pierre Auger Observatory in which we search for groups of directionally-aligned events (or `multiplets') which exhibit…
