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…
