Investigating Hadronic Interactions at Ultra-High Energies with the Pierre Auger Observatory

Isabel Goos, :, P. Abreu +374

The development of an extensive air shower depends not only on the nature of the primary ultra-high-energy cosmic ray but also on the properties of the hadronic interactions. For e…

Limits to gauge coupling in the dark sector set by the non-observation of instanton-induced decay of Super-Heavy Dark Matter in the Pierre Auger Observatory data

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +374

Instantons, which are non-perturbative solutions to Yang-Mills equations, provide a signal for the occurrence of quantum tunneling between distinct classes of vacua. They can give…

Testing effects of Lorentz invariance violation in the propagation of astroparticles with the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +374

Lorentz invariance violation (LIV) is often described by dispersion relations of the form with delta different based on particle type , with…

The energy spectrum of cosmic rays beyond the turn-down around eV as measured with the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +374

We present a measurement of the cosmic-ray spectrum above 100\,PeV using the part of the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory that has a spacing of 750~m. An inflection…

Measurement of the fluctuations in the number of muons in extensive air showers with the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +365

We present the first measurement of the fluctuations in the number of muons in extensive air showers produced by ultrahigh energy cosmic rays. We find that the measured fluctuation…
