Anatomy of an extensive air shower: building an optimal radio emission calculation
Juan Ammerman-Yebra, Harm Schoorlemmer
Radio emission from particle air showers is one of the most promising detection techniques to achieve an experiment with a large exposure in ultra-high-energy astroparticle physics…
Simulating an imaging atmospheric radio telescope to observe cosmic gamma rays and cosmic neutrinos
Sebastian Achim Mueller, Anne Timmermans, Juan Ammerman-Yebra +1
Observations of cosmic gamma~rays with energies above the 10 electronvolts (TeV) regime are often a direct probe of events where our theoretical predictions are challenged b…
Imaging the radio-wave emission from extensive air showers
Juan Ammerman-Yebra, Harm Schoorlemmer, Anne Timmermans +1
We propose a new way to observe cosmic-ray-induced air showers by imaging the radio emission. With simulations we demonstrate key features for imaging the radio-wave emission from…
CORSIKA 8: A General Framework for Particle Cascade Simulations
J. M. Alameddine, J. Albrecht, A. A Alves +34
The simulation of extensive air showers and particle cascades in general is a cornerstone of modern astroparticle physics. For more than two decades, CORSIKA, currently in version…
Simulating radio emission from particle cascades with CORSIKA 8
J. M. Alameddine, J. Albrecht, J. Ammerman-Yebra +27
CORSIKA 8 is a new framework for simulations of particle cascades in air and dense media implemented in modern C++17, based on past experience with existing codes, in particular CO…
