A search for sterile neutrinos at ultrahigh energies at the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Abdul Halim, P. Abreu +351

We investigate the sensitivity of the Pierre Auger Observatory to sterile neutrinos with masses in the MeV-to-100 MeV range. To this end, we consider a minimal framework in w…

Scaler data from the Pierre Auger Observatory as a proxy of solar activity

C. Taricco, I. Bizzarri, C. Dionese +1

Solar activity variations strongly impact the modulation of the flux of low-energy Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs) reaching the Earth. The secondary particles, which originate from the…

Scaler rates from the Pierre Auger Observatory: a new proxy of solar activity

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, I. Bizzarri, C. Dionese +1

The modulation of low-energy galactic cosmic rays reflects interplanetary magnetic field variations and can provide useful information on solar activity. An array of ground-surface…

Detection of the 2021 Outburst of RS Ophiuchi with the LST-1

Yukiho Kobayashi, Arnau Aguasca-Cabot, María Isabel Bernardos Martín +2

Novae are luminous explosions in close binaries which host a white dwarf and a companion donor star. They are triggered by a thermonuclear runaway when the white dwarf accretes a c…

Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes pointing determination using the trajectories of the stars in the field of view

Mykhailo Dalchenko, Matthieu Heller

We present a new approach to the pointing determination of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs). This method is universal and can be applied to any IACT with minor modi…
