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…

Investigating Hadronic Interactions at Ultra-High Energies with the Pierre Auger Observatory

Isabel Goos, :, P. Abreu +374

The development of an extensive air shower depends not only on the nature of the primary ultra-high-energy cosmic ray but also on the properties of the hadronic interactions. For e…

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…

The energy spectrum of cosmic rays beyond the turn-down around eV as measured with the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +374

We present a measurement of the cosmic-ray spectrum above 100\,PeV using the part of the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory that has a spacing of 750~m. An inflection…

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…
