An upper limit on the electron-neutrino flux from the HiRes detector

R. U. Abbasi, T. Abu-Zayyad, M. Allen +64

Air-fluorescence detectors such as the High Resolution Fly's Eye (HiRes) detector are very sensitive to upward-going, Earth-skimming ultrahigh energy electron-neutrino-induced show…

First Observation of the Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuzmin Suppression

HiRes Collaboration

The High Resolution Fly's Eye (HiRes) experiment has observed the Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuzmin suppression (called the GZK cutoff) with a statistical significance of five standard devia…

A Measurement of Time-Averaged Aerosol Optical Depth using Air-Showers Observed in Stereo by HiRes

s Eye Collaboration

Air fluorescence measurements of cosmic ray energy must be corrected for attenuation of the atmosphere. In this paper we show that the air-showers themselves can yield a measuremen…

Techniques for measuring atmospheric aerosols at the High Resolution Fly's Eye experiment

The HiRes Collaboration

We describe several techniques developed by the High Resolution Fly's Eye experiment for measuring aerosol vertical optical depth, aerosol horizontal attenuation length, and aeroso…
