The Air-Fluorescence Yield

F. Arqueros, F. Blanco, D. Garcia-Pinto +2

Detection of the air-fluorescence radiation induced by the charged particles of extensive air showers is a well-established technique for the study of ultra-high energy cosmic rays…

Energy determination of cosmic ray showers in surface arrays using signal inference at a single distance from the core

G. Ros, G. Medina-Tanco, L. del Peral +3

In most high energy cosmic ray surface arrays, the primary energy is currently determined from the value of the lateral distribution function at a fixed distance from the shower co…

Correlation of the highest-energy cosmic rays with the positions of nearby active galactic nuclei

The Pierre Auger Collaboration

Data collected by the Pierre Auger Observatory provide evidence for anisotropy in the arrival directions of the cosmic rays with the highest energies, which are correlated with the…
