Active Galactic Nuclei: Sources for ultra high energy cosmic rays?
P. L. Biermann, J. K. Becker, L. Caramete +11
The origin of ultra high energy cosmic rays promises to lead us to a deeper understanding of the structure of matter. This is possible through the study of particle collisions at c…
Energy spectrum of ultra high energy cosmic rays
Ioana C. Maris
The construction of the southern site of the Pierre Auger Observatory is almost completed. Three independent measurements of the flux of the cosmic rays with energies larger than 1…
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…
Origin and physics of the highest energy cosmic rays: What can we learn from Radio Astronomy?
Peter L. Biermann, P. Gina Isar, Ioana C. Maris +2
Here in this lecture we will touch on two aspects, one the new radio methods to observe the effects of high energy particles, and second the role that radio galaxies play in helpin…
Measurement of the Lateral Distribution Function of UHECR Air Showers with the Pierre Auger Observatory
D. Barnhill, P. Bauleo, M. T. Dova +11
The Pierre Auger Observatory is being used to study cosmic rays with energies larger than 10 EeV. An essential quantity that must be deduced from data is the lateral distribution f…
