Search for Point-Like Sources of Ultra-High Energy Neutrinos at the Pierre Auger Observatory and Improved Limit on the Diffuse Flux of Tau Neutrinos
Pierre Auger Collaboration
The Surface Detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory can detect neutrinos with energy between 10^17 eV and 10^20 eV from point-like sources across the sky south of +55 deg an…
Muon production and string percolation effects in cosmic rays at the highest energies
J. Alvarez-Muñiz, L. Cazon, R. Conceição +3
Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays with energies above ~ 10^18 eV provide an unique window to study hadronic interactions at energies well above those achieved in the largest man-made a…
Antennas for the Detection of Radio Emission Pulses from Cosmic-Ray induced Air Showers at the Pierre Auger Observatory
P. Abreu, M. Aglietta, M. Ahlers +512
The Pierre Auger Observatory is exploring the potential of the radio detection technique to study extensive air showers induced by ultra-high energy cosmic rays. The Auger Engineer…
The Rapid Atmospheric Monitoring System of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +508
The Pierre Auger Observatory is a facility built to detect air showers produced by cosmic rays above 10^17 eV. During clear nights with a low illuminated moon fraction, the UV fluo…
The non-linearity between <ln A> and <Xmax> induced by the acceptance of fluorescence telescopes
R. Ulrich, L. Cazon
The measurement of the average depth of the shower maximum is the most commonly used observable for the possible inference of the primary cosmic-ray mass composition. Currently, di…
A search for ultra-high energy neutrinos in highly inclined events at the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +497
The Surface Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory is sensitive to neutrinos of all flavours above 0.1 EeV. These interact through charged and neutral currents in the atmosphere…
Studying the nuclear mass composition of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays with the Pierre Auger Observatory
L. Cazon
The Fluorescence Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory measures the atmospheric depth, , where the longitudinal profile of the high energy air showers reaches its maxim…
Description of Atmospheric Conditions at the Pierre Auger Observatory using the Global Data Assimilation System (GDAS)
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +499
Atmospheric conditions at the site of a cosmic ray observatory must be known for reconstructing observed extensive air showers. The Global Data Assimilation System (GDAS) is a glob…
A model for the transport of muons in extensive air showers
L. Cazon, R. Conceição, M. Pimenta +1
In this article we identify the key elements that govern the propagation of muons from the production in extensive air showers to ground. We describe a model based on simple assump…
