Performance of the First ANTARES Detector Line
ANTARES collaboration, M. Ageron
In this paper we report on the data recorded with the first Antares detector line. The line was deployed on the 14th of February 2006 and was connected to the readout two weeks lat…
Correlation of the highest-energy cosmic rays with the positions of nearby active galactic nuclei
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
Data collected by the Pierre Auger Observatory provide evidence for anisotropy in the arrival directions of the cosmic rays with the highest energies, which are correlated with the…
On the viability of holistic cosmic-ray source models
J. Aublin, E. Parizot
We consider the energy spectrum of cosmic-rays (CRs) from a purely phenomenological point of view and investigate the possibility that they all be produced by the same type of sour…
Aperture calculation of the Pierre Auger Observatory surface detector
D. Allard, I. Allekotte, E. Armengaud +11
We determine the instantaneous aperture and integrated exposure of the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory, taking into account the trigger efficiency as a function of…
The trigger system of the Pierre Auger Surface Detector: operation, efficiency and stability
D. Allard, E. Armengaud, I. Allekotte +31
The trigger system of the Surface Detector (SD) of the Pierre Auger Observatory is described, from the identification of candidate showers ( EeV) at the level of a single stat…
Generalised 3D-reconstruction method of a dipole anisotropy in cosmic-ray distributions
J. Aublin, E. Parizot
We develop a method to study the anisotropy of a cosmic-ray angular distribution, using both the right ascension and the declination of the arrival directions. It generalises the f…
