Air Fluorescence Relevant for Cosmic-Ray Detection - Review of Pioneering Measurements
Fernando Arqueros, Joerg R. Hoerandel, Bianca Keilhauer
Cosmic rays with energies exceeding eV are frequently registered by measurements of the fluorescence light emitted by extensive air showers. The main uncertainty for the…
Air Fluorescence Relevant for Cosmic-Ray Detection - Summary of the 5th Fluorescence Workshop, El Escorial 2007
Fernando Arqueros, Joerg R. Hoerandel, Bianca Keilhauer
High-energy cosmic rays with energies exceeding eV are frequently observed by measurements of the fluorescence light induced by air showers. A major contribution to the s…
Altitude dependence of fluorescence light emission by extensive air showers
B. Keilhauer, J. Bluemer, R. Engel +1
Fluorescence light is induced by extensive air showers while developing in the Earth's atmosphere. The number of emitted fluorescence photons depends on the conditions of the air a…
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…
Temperature and Humidity Dependence of Air Fluorescence Yield measured by AIRFLY
M. Ave
The fluorescence detection of ultra high energy cosmic rays requires a detailed knowledge of the fluorescence light emission from nitrogen molecules over a wide range of atmospheri…
The Fluorescence Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory - A Calorimeter for UHECR
B. Keilhauer
The Pierre Auger Observatory is a hybrid detector for ultrahigh energy cosmic rays (UHECR) with energies above 10 eV. Currently the first part of the Observatory nears com…
