Limit on the diffuse flux of ultra-high energy tau neutrinos with the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration

Data collected at the Pierre Auger Observatory are used to establish an upper limit on the diffuse flux of tau neutrinos in the cosmic radiation. Earth-skimming may interact…

Frequency spectra of cosmic ray air shower radio emission measured with LOPES

A. Nigl

AIMS: We wish to study the spectral dependence of the radio emission from cosmic-ray air showers around 100 PeV (1017 eV). METHODS: We observe short radio pulses in a broad frequen…

Direction identification in radio images of cosmic-ray air showers detected with LOPES and KASCADE

A. Nigl

AIMS: We want to understand the emission mechanism of radio emission from air showers to determine the origin of high-energy cosmic rays. Therefore, we study the geometry of the ai…

Observation of the suppression of the flux of cosmic rays above 4x10^19eV

The Pierre Auger Collaboration

The energy spectrum of cosmic rays above 2.5x10^18eV, derived from 20,000 events recorded at the Pierre Auger Observatory, is described. The spectral index gamma of the flux, J ~ E…

Upper limit on the cosmic-ray photon flux above 10^19 eV using the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration

A method is developed to search for air showers initiated by photons using data recorded by the surface detector of the Auger Observatory. The approach is based on observables sens…

Upper limit on the diffuse flux of UHE tau neutrinos from the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration

The surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory is sensitive to Earth-skimming tau-neutrinos that interact in the Earth's crust. Tau leptons from charged-cur…
