A novel method for measuring the extragalactic background light: Fermi application to the lobes of Fornax A
Markos Georganopoulos, Rita M. Sambruna, Demosthenes Kazanas +5
We describe a new method for measuring the extragalactic background light (EBL) through the detection of -ray inverse Compton (IC) emission due to scattering of the EBL photons…
Diffusion of cosmic-rays and the Gamma-ray Large Area Telescope: Phenomenology at the 1-100 GeV regime
Ana Y. Rodriguez Marrero, Diego F. Torres, Elsa de Cea del Pozo +2
This paper analyzes astrophysical scenarios that may be detected at the upper end of the energy range of the Gamma Ray Large Area Space Telescope (GLAST), as a result of cosmic-ray…
Can GLAST detect gamma-rays from the extended radio features of radio galaxies?
R. M. Sambruna, M. Georganopoulos, D. Davis +1
A few FRI radio galaxies were detected at GeV gamma-rays with CGRO EGRET, with peroperties suggesting that the gamma-ray flux originates from the core. Here we discuss the possibil…
EGRET upper limits and stacking searches of gamma-ray observations of luminous and ultra-luminous infrared galaxies
Analia N. Cillis, Diego F. Torres, Olaf Reimer
We present a stacking analysis of EGRET -ray observations at the positions of luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies. The latter were selected from the recently presented…
A Study Of Very Inclined Showers In The Pierre Auger Observatory
M. Ave
The Engineering Array of the Auger Observatory has been running successfully since 2001 and inclined showers have been recorded from the start. We have analysed the events with zen…
Calibration of the Pierre Auger fluorescence detector
M. D. Roberts
The absolute calibration of an air fluorescence detector (FD) is an important element in correctly determining the energy of detected cosmic rays. The absolute calibration relates…
Extended Air Showers and Muon Interactions
A. N. Cillis, S. J. Sciutto
The objective of this work is to report on the influence of muon interactions on the development of air showers initiated by astroparticles. We make a comparative study of the diff…
Muon Bremsstrahlung and Muonic Pair Production in Air Showers
A. Cillis, S. J. Sciutto
The objective of this work is to report on the modifications in air shower development due to muon bremsstrahlung and muonic pair production. In order to do that we have implemente…
Air Showers and Geomagnetic Field
A. Cillis, S. J. Sciutto
The influence of the geomagnetic field on the development of air showers is studied. The well known International Geomagnetic Reference Field was included in the AIRES air shower s…
Influence of the LPM effect and dielectric suppression on particle air showers
A. N. Cillis, H. Fanchiotti, C. A. Garcia Canal +1
An analysis of the influence of the Landau-Migdal-Pomeranchuk (LPM) effect on the development of air showers initiated by astroparticles is presented. The theory of Migdal is studi…
LPM effect and dielectric suppression in air showers
A. N. Cillis, H. Fanchiotti, C. A. Garcia Canal +1
An analysis of the influence of the Landau-Migdal-Pomeranchuck (LPM) effect on the development of air showers initiated by astroparticles, is presented. By means of computer simula…
Geomagnetic Field and Air Shower Simulations
A. Cillis, S. J. Sciutto
The influence of the geomagnetic field on the development of air showers is studied. The well known International Geomagnetic Reference Field was included in the AIRES air shower s…
