A new method to measure the attenuation of hadrons in extensive air showers

W. D. Apel

Extensive air showers are generated through interactions of high-energy cosmic rays impinging the Earth's atmosphere. A new method is described to infer the attenuation of hadrons…

Test of the hadronic interaction model EPOS with air shower data

Grande Collaboration, W. D. Apel

Predictions of the hadronic interaction model EPOS~1.61 as implemented in the air shower simulation program CORSIKA are compared to observations with the KASCADE experiment. The in…

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…

Radio emission of highly inclined cosmic ray air showers measured with LOPES

J. Petrovic, LOPES collaboration

LOPES (LOFAR Prototype Station) is an array of dipole antennas used for detection of radio emission from air showers. It is co-located and triggered by the KASCADE (Karlsruhe Showe…
