On the design of experiments based on plastic scintillators using Geant4 simulations
G. Ros, G. Sáez-Cano, G. A. Medina-Tanco +1
Plastic scintillators are widely used as particle detectors in many fields, mainly, medicine, particle physics and astrophysics. Traditionally, they are coupled to a photo-multplie…
Energy reconstruction of hadron-initiated showers of ultra-high energy cosmic rays
G. Ros, G. A. Medina-Tanco, A. D. Supanitsky +2
The current methods to determine the primary energy of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are different when dealing with hadron or photon primaries. The current experiments co…
Depth of Maximum of Air-Shower Profiles at the Pierre Auger Observatory: Composition Implications
Pierre Auger Collaboration
Using the data taken at the Pierre Auger Observatory between December 2004 and December 2012, we have examined the implications of the distributions of depths of atmospheric shower…
A search for point sources of EeV photons
Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +483
Measurements of air showers made using the hybrid technique developed with the fluorescence and surface detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory allow a sensitive search for point…
Origin of atmospheric aerosols at the Pierre Auger Observatory using studies of air mass trajectories in South America
Pierre Auger Collaboration, Gabriele Curci
The Pierre Auger Observatory is making significant contributions towards understanding the nature and origin of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. One of its main challenges is the mon…
Improving photon-hadron discrimination based on cosmic ray surface detector data
G. Ros, A. D. Supanitsky, G. A. Medina-Tanco +2
The search for photons at EeV energies and beyond has considerable astrophysical interest and will remain one of the key challenges for ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) observa…
