Characteristics of geomagnetic cascading of ultra-high energy photons at the southern and northern sites of the Pierre Auger Observatory
P. Homola, M. Risse, R. Engel +4
Cosmic-ray photons above 10^19 eV can convert in the geomagnetic field and initiate a preshower, i.e. a particle cascade before entering the atmosphere. We compare the preshower ch…

Universal lateral distribution of energy deposit in air showers and its application to shower reconstruction
D. Gora, R. Engel, D. Heck +6
The light intensity distribution in a shower image and its implications to the primary energy reconstructed by the fluorescence technique are studied. Based on detailed CORSIKA ene…
