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…

The Absolute, Relative and Multi-Wavelength Calibration of the Pierre Auger Observatory Fluorescence Detectors

R. Knapik, P. Bauleo, B. R. Becker +20

Absolute calibration of the Pierre Auger Observatory fluorescence detectors uses a 375 nm light source at the telescope aperture. This end-to-end technique accounts for the combine…

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…

Calibration of the Pierre Auger fluorescence detector

M. D. Roberts

The absolute calibration of an air fluorescence detector (FD) is an important element in correctly determining the energy of detected cosmic rays. The absolute calibration relates…
