The energy spectrum of cosmic-ray electrons at TeV energies
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
The very large collection area of ground-based gamma-ray telescopes gives them a substantial advantage over balloon/satellite based instruments in the detection of very-high-energy…
Limits on an Energy Dependence of the Speed of Light from a Flare of the Active Galaxy PKS 2155-304
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
In the past few decades, several models have predicted an energy-dependence of the speed of light in the context of quantum gravity. For cosmological sources such as active galaxie…
Aperture calculation of the Pierre Auger Observatory surface detector
D. Allard, I. Allekotte, E. Armengaud +11
We determine the instantaneous aperture and integrated exposure of the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory, taking into account the trigger efficiency as a function of…
The importance of muon information on primary mass discrimination of ultra-high energy cosmic rays
D. Supanitsky, A. Tiba, G. Medina-Tanco +7
Several methods can be used to perform statistical inference of primary composition of cosmic rays measured with water Cerenkov detectors as those in use at the Pierre Auger Southe…
The trigger system of the Pierre Auger Surface Detector: operation, efficiency and stability
D. Allard, E. Armengaud, I. Allekotte +31
The trigger system of the Surface Detector (SD) of the Pierre Auger Observatory is described, from the identification of candidate showers ( EeV) at the level of a single stat…
Observing muon decays in water Cherenkov detectors at the Pierre Auger Observatory
P. Allison, F. Arneodo, X. Bertou +9
Muons decaying in the water volume of a Cherenkov detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory provide a useful calibration point at low energy. Using the digitized waveform continuous…
