Measurement of Production Properties of Positively Charged Kaons in Proton-Carbon Interactions at 31 GeV/c

SHINE Collaboration, N. Abgrall, A. Aduszkiewicz +135

Spectra of positively charged kaons in p+C interactions at 31 GeV/c were measured with the NA61/SHINE spectrometer at the CERN SPS. The analysis is based on the full set of data co…

Trigger and Aperture of the Surface Detector Array of the Pierre Auger Observatory

J. Abraham, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +469

The surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory consists of 1600 water-Cherenkov detectors, for the study of extensive air showers (EAS) generated by ultra-high-energy c…

Search for signatures of magnetically-induced alignment in the arrival directions measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +496

We present the results of an analysis of data recorded at the Pierre Auger Observatory in which we search for groups of directionally-aligned events (or `multiplets') which exhibit…

Anomalous Longitudinal Shower Profiles and Hadronic Interactions

Colin Baus, Ralph Engel, Tanguy Pierog +2

The bulk of air showers initiated by very high energy cosmic rays exhibits a longitudinal development in depth with a single well-defined shower maximum. However, a small fraction…

First results of the CROME experiment

R. Smida, H. Bluemer, R. Engel +18

It is expected that a radio signal in the microwave range is produced in the atmosphere due to molecular bremsstrahlung initiated by extensive air showers. The CROME (Cosmic-Ray Ob…
