Modified hadronic interactions in 3-dimensional simulations
Jiří Blažek, Jan Ebr, Jakub Vícha +3
We present a method to test the impact of ad-hoc modifications of some of the generic parameters of hadronic interactions -- cross section, elasticity, and multiplicity -- on any o…
Simulating radio emission from air showers with CORSIKA 8
Nikolaos Karastathis, Remy Prechelt, Juan Ammerman-Yebra +2
CORSIKA 8 is a new framework for air shower simulations implemented in modern C++17, based on past experience with existing codes like CORSIKA 7. The flexible and modular structure…
Validation of Electromagnetic Showers in CORSIKA 8
Alexander Sandrock, Jean-Marco Alameddine, Felix Riehn
The air shower simulation code CORSIKA has served as a key part of the simulation chain for numerous astroparticle physics experiments over the past decades. Due to retirement of t…
The particle-shower simulation code CORSIKA 8
Tim Huege, Maximilian Reininghaus
CORSIKA up to version 7 has been the most-used Monte Carlo code for simulating extensive air showers for more than 20 years. Due to its monolithic, Fortran-based software design an…
On the measurement of the proton-air cross section using air shower data
Ralf Ulrich, Johannes Blümer, Ralph Engel +2
The analysis of high-energy air shower data allows one to study the proton-air cross section at energies beyond the reach of fixed target and collider experiments. The mean depth o…
