The SLAC T-510 experiment for radio emission from particle showers: detailed simulation study and interpretation

K. Bechtol, K. Belov, K. Borch +26

Over the last several decades, radio detection of air showers has been widely used to detect ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. We developed an experiment under controlled laboratory c…

Upward-Pointing Cosmic-Ray-like Events Observed with ANITA

Andres Romero-Wolf, P. W. Gorham, J. Nam +73

These proceedings address a recent publication by the ANITA collaboration of four upward- pointing cosmic-ray-like events observed in the first flight of ANITA. Three of these even…

Observation of an Unusual Upward-going Cosmic-ray-like Event in the Third Flight of ANITA

P. W. Gorham, B. Rotter, P. Allison +60

We report on an upward traveling, radio-detected cosmic-ray-like impulsive event with characteristics closely matching an extensive air shower. This event, observed in the third fl…
