Long-term calibration and validation of stability of the Auger Engineering Radio Array using the diffuse Galactic radio emission
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Abdul Halim, P. Abreu +356
The Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) measures radio emission from high-energy extensive air showers. Consisting of 153 autonomous radio-detector stations spread over \,km$^…
AugerPrime: Status and first results
David Schmidt
With the knowledge and statistical precision derived from two decades of measurement, the Pierre Auger Observatory has significantly deepened our understanding of ultra-high-energy…
Aerosol Measurement in B, V, and R Filters using Wide-field Photometry
Shefali Negi, Jan Ebr, Sergey Karpov +1
The new method for aerosol measurement using wide-field stellar photometry was originally developed for B-filter data. The dependence of VAOD (vertical aerosol optical depth) on wa…
FRAM Next Generation at the Pierre Auger Observatory: cloud monitoring in the age of CMOS cameras
Jan Ebr, Sergey Karpov
The visibility of stars is often used for cloud detection using all-sky cameras, which have however only a limited reach and resolution near the horizon due to the lack of detectab…
Towards a Cosmic-Ray Energy Scale with the Auger Engineering Radio Array
Max Büsken
Radio detection of cosmic-ray (CR) induced extensive air showers with digital antenna arrays is a matured technique by now. At the Pierre Auger Observatory, the Auger Engineering R…
