Lateral width of shower image in the Auger fluorescence detector
H. Barbosa, V. de Souza, C. Dobrigkeit +11
The impact of the lateral distribution of light in extensive air showers on the detection and reconstruction of shower profiles is investigated for the Auger fluorescence telescope…
Upper limit on the photon fraction in highest-energy cosmic rays from AGASA data
M. Risse, P. Homola, R. Engel +5
A new method to derive an upper limit on photon primaries from small data sets of air showers is developed which accounts for shower properties varying with the primary energy and…
On the primary particle type of the most energetic Fly's Eye event
M. Risse, P. Homola, R. Engel +5
The longitudinal profile of the 320 EeV event observed by the Fly's Eye experiment is analysed. A method of testing the hypothesis of a specific primary particle type is described.…
Was the Highest Energy Cosmic Ray a Photon?
P. Homola, M. Risse, D. Gora +5
The hypothetical photonic origin of the most energetic air shower detected by the Fly's Eye experiment is discussed. The method used for the analysis is based on Monte Carlo simula…
