Update on testing of air-shower modelling using combined data of the Pierre Auger Observatory and phenomenological consequences

Jakub Vícha

The combined data of Fluorescence and Surface Detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory has recently provided the strongest constraints on the validity of predictions from current…

Science with the Global Cosmic-ray Observatory (GCOS)

Rafael Alves Batista

The Global Cosmic-ray Observatory (GCOS) is a proposed large-scale observatory for studying ultra-high-energy cosmic particles, including ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs), ph…

The UHECR dipole and quadrupole in the latest data from the original Auger and TA surface detectors

Peter Tinyakov, Luis Anchordoqui, Teresa Bister +13

The sources of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays are still unknown, but assuming standard physics, they are expected to lie within a few hundred megaparsecs from us. Indeed, over cosmo…

UHECR arrival directions in the latest data from the original Auger and TA surface detectors and nearby galaxies

Armando di Matteo, Luis Anchordoqui, Teresa Bister +13

The distribution of ultra-high-energy cosmic-ray arrival directions appears to be nearly isotropic except for a dipole moment of order per cent. None…

Nanosecond-level time synchronization of autonomous radio detector stations for extensive air showers

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +448

To exploit the full potential of radio measurements of cosmic-ray air showers at MHz frequencies, a detector timing synchronization within 1 ns is needed. Large distributed radio d…

Muons in air showers at the Pierre Auger Observatory: Measurement of atmospheric production depth

Pierre Auger Collaboration

The surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory provides information about the longitudinal development of the muonic component of extensive air showers. Using the timin…

Probing the radio emission from air showers with polarization measurements

Pierre Auger Collaboration

The emission of radio waves from air showers has been attributed to the so-called geomagnetic emission process. At frequencies around 50 MHz this process leads to coherent radiatio…

Identifying Clouds over the Pierre Auger Observatory using Infrared Satellite Data

Pierre Auger Collaboration

We describe a new method of identifying night-time clouds over the Pierre Auger Observatory using infrared data from the Imager instruments on the GOES-12 and GOES-13 satellites. W…

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…
