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…
New method for atmospheric calibration at the Pierre Auger Observatory using FRAM, a robotic astronomical telescope
Segev BenZvi, Martina Bohacova, Brian Connolly +16
FRAM - F/(Ph)otometric Robotic Atmospheric Monitor is the latest addition to the atmospheric monitoring instruments of the Pierre Auger Observatory. An optical telescope equipped w…
The bright optical flash from GRB 060117
Martin Jelínek, Michael Prouza, Petr Kubánek +19
We present a discovery and observation of an extraordinarily bright prompt optical emission of the GRB 060117 obtained by a wide-field camera atop the robotic telescope FRAM of the…
The CAT Imaging Telescope for Very-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Astronomy
A. Barrau, R. Bazer-Bachi, E. Beyer +49
The CAT (Cherenkov Array at Themis) imaging telescope, equipped with a very-high-definition camera (546 fast phototubes with 0.12 degrees spacing surrounded by 54 larger tubes in t…
Prototype Tests for the CELESTE Solar Array Gamma--Ray Telescope
B. Giebels, R. Bazer-Bachi, H. Bergeret +24
The CELESTE experiment will be an Atmospheric Cherenkov detector designed to bridge the gap in energy sensitivity between current satellite and ground-based gamma-ray telescopes, 2…
