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…
Improved model for the analysis of air fluorescence induced by electrons
F. Arqueros, F. Blanco, J. Rosado
A model recently proposed for the calculation of air-fluorescence yield excited by electrons is revisited. Improved energy distributions of secondary electrons and a more realistic…
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…
The yield of air fluorescence induced by electrons
F. Arqueros, F. Blanco, A. Castellanos +2
The fluorescence yield for dry air and pure nitrogen excited by electrons is calculated using a combination of well-established molecular properties and experimental data of the in…
