Calibration of the underground muon detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +370
To obtain direct measurements of the muon content of extensive air showers with energy above eV, the Pierre Auger Observatory is currently being equipped with an underg…
Design, upgrade and characterization of the silicon photomultiplier front-end for the AMIGA detector at the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +357
AMIGA (Auger Muons and Infill for the Ground Array) is an upgrade of the Pierre Auger Observatory to complement the study of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECR) by measuring the…
QUBIC I: Overview and ScienceProgram
J. -Ch. Hamilton, L. Mousset, E. S. Battistelli +127
The Q U Bolometric Interferometer for Cosmology (QUBIC) is a novel kind of polarimeter optimized for the measurement of the B-mode polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Backgro…
QUBIC II: Spectro-Polarimetry with Bolometric Interferometry
L. Mousset, M. M. Gamboa Lerena, E. S. Battistelli +128
Bolometric interferometry is a novel technique that has the ability to perform spectral imaging. A bolometric interferometer observes the sky in a wide frequency band and can recon…
Composition determination of cosmic rays from the muon content of the showers
A. C. Cobos, A. D. Supanitsky, A. Etchegoyen
The origin and nature of ultra high energy cosmic rays remains being a mystery. However, great progress has been made in recent years due to the observations performed by the Pierr…
QUBIC VII: The feedhorn-switch system of the technological demonstrator
F. Cavaliere, A. Mennella, M. Zannoni +128
We present the design, manufacturing and performance of the horn-switch system developed for the technological demonstrator of QUBIC (the \& Bolometric Interferometer for Cos…
