A new approach to inferring the mass composition of cosmic rays at energies above 10^18 eV
M. Ave, J. A. Hinton, R. A. Vazquez +2
We describe a new approach to establishing the mass composition at high energies. Based on measuring both the vertical and inclined shower rates, it has the potential to distinguis…
Constraints on the Ultra High Energy Photon flux using inclined showers from the Haverah Park array
M. Ave, J. A. Hinton, R. A. Vazquez +2
We describe a method to analyse inclined air showers produced by ultra high energy cosmic rays using an analytical description of the muon densities. We report the results obtained…
ZeV Air Showers: The View from Auger
Enrique Zas
In this article I briefly discuss the characteristics of the Auger observatories paying particular attention to the role of inclined showers, both in the search for high energy neu…
Astroparticle Physics: The High Energy Tail of the Cosmic Ray Spectrum
Enrique Zas
In this article I review the main theoretical problems that are posed by the highest energy end of the observed cosmic ray spectrum, stressing the importance of establishing their…
Calculations of radio pulses from High Energy Showers
Jaime Alvarez-Muñiz, Enrique Zas
In this article we review the progress made in understanding the main characteristics of coherent Čerenkov radiation induced by high energy showers in dense media. A specific code…
Prospects for radio detection of extremely high energy cosmic rays and neutrinos in the Moon
J. Alvarez-Muñiz, E. Zas
We explore the feasibility of using the Moon as a detector of extremely high energy (>10^19 eV) cosmic rays and neutrinos. The idea is to use the existing radiotelescopes on Earth…
