: a new observable for photon-hadron discrimination in hybrid air shower events
M. Niechciol, M. Risse, P. Ruehl +3
To search for ultra-high-energy photons in primary cosmic rays, air shower observables are needed that allow a good separation between primary photons and primary hadrons. We prese…
Inferences on Mass Composition and Tests of Hadronic Interactions from 0.3 to 100 EeV using the water-Cherenkov Detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +403
We present a new method for probing the hadronic interaction models at ultra-high energy and extracting details about mass composition. This is done using the time profiles of the…
Observation of a Large-scale Anisotropy in the Arrival Directions of Cosmic Rays above eV
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +404
Cosmic rays are atomic nuclei arriving from outer space that reach the highest energies observed in nature. Clues to their origin come from studying the distribution of their arriv…
