Status and Performance of New Silicon Stripixel Detector for the PHENIX Experiment at RHIC: Beta Source, Cosmic-rays and Proton Beam at 120 GeV

Rachid Nouicer

We are constructing a Silicon Vertex Tracker detector (VTX) for the PHENIX experiment at RHIC. Our main motivation is to enable measurements of heavy flavor production (charm and b…

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…

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…

A Study of the Composition of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays Using the High Resolution Fly's Eye

s Eye Collaboration

The composition of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) is measured with the High Resolution Fly's Eye cosmic ray observatory (HiRes) data using the Xmax technique. Data were coll…
