Fluorescence emission induced by extensive air showers in dependence on atmospheric conditions
Bianca Keilhauer, Michael Unger
Charged particles of extensive air showers (EAS), mainly electrons and positrons, initiate the emission of fluorescence light in the Earth's atmosphere. This light provides a calor…
A novel method for the absolute fluorescence yield measurement by AIRFLY
AIRFLY Collaboration, M. Ave
One of the goals of the AIRFLY (AIR FLuorescence Yield) experiment is to measure the absolute fluorescence yield induced by electrons in air to better than 10% precision. We introd…
Air Fluorescence Relevant for Cosmic-Ray Detection - Review of Pioneering Measurements
Fernando Arqueros, Joerg R. Hoerandel, Bianca Keilhauer
Cosmic rays with energies exceeding eV are frequently registered by measurements of the fluorescence light emitted by extensive air showers. The main uncertainty for the…
Air Fluorescence Relevant for Cosmic-Ray Detection - Summary of the 5th Fluorescence Workshop, El Escorial 2007
Fernando Arqueros, Joerg R. Hoerandel, Bianca Keilhauer
High-energy cosmic rays with energies exceeding eV are frequently observed by measurements of the fluorescence light induced by air showers. A major contribution to the s…
Altitude dependence of fluorescence light emission by extensive air showers
B. Keilhauer, J. Bluemer, R. Engel +1
Fluorescence light is induced by extensive air showers while developing in the Earth's atmosphere. The number of emitted fluorescence photons depends on the conditions of the air a…
