Bounds on the density of sources of ultra-high energy cosmic rays from the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration

We derive lower bounds on the density of sources of ultra-high energy cosmic rays from the lack of significant clustering in the arrival directions of the highest energy events det…

Ultrahigh Energy Neutrinos at the Pierre Auger Observatory

Pierre Auger Collaboration

The observation of ultrahigh energy (UHE) neutrinos has become a priority in experimental astroparticle physics. UHE neutrinos can be detected with a variety of techniques. In part…

Interpretation of the Depths of Maximum of Extensive Air Showers Measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory

Pierre Auger Collaboration

To interpret the mean depth of cosmic ray air shower maximum and its dispersion, we parametrize those two observables as functions of the first two moments of the distribut…

Search for Point-Like Sources of Ultra-High Energy Neutrinos at the Pierre Auger Observatory and Improved Limit on the Diffuse Flux of Tau Neutrinos

Pierre Auger Collaboration

The Surface Detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory can detect neutrinos with energy between 10^17 eV and 10^20 eV from point-like sources across the sky south of +55 deg an…

The Rapid Atmospheric Monitoring System of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +508

The Pierre Auger Observatory is a facility built to detect air showers produced by cosmic rays above 10^17 eV. During clear nights with a low illuminated moon fraction, the UV fluo…
