Testing effects of Lorentz invariance violation in the propagation of astroparticles with the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +374

Lorentz invariance violation (LIV) is often described by dispersion relations of the form with delta different based on particle type , with…

Measurement of the fluctuations in the number of muons in extensive air showers with the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +365

We present the first measurement of the fluctuations in the number of muons in extensive air showers produced by ultrahigh energy cosmic rays. We find that the measured fluctuation…

Reconstruction of Events Recorded with the Surface Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +378

Cosmic rays arriving at Earth collide with the upper parts of the atmosphere, thereby inducing extensive air showers. When secondary particles from the cascade arrive at the ground…

The Southern Wide-Field Gamma-Ray Observatory (SWGO): A Next-Generation Ground-Based Survey Instrument for VHE Gamma-Ray Astronomy

P. Abreu, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +95

We describe plans for the development of the Southern Wide-field Gamma-ray Observatory (SWGO), a next-generation instrument with sensitivity to the very-high-energy (VHE) band to b…
