Precise measurement of the absolute fluorescence yield of the 337 nm band in atmospheric gases
AIRFLY Collaboration, M. Ave, M. Bohacova +29
A measurement of the absolute fluorescence yield of the 337 nm nitrogen band, relevant to ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) detectors, is reported. Two independent calibrations…
Search for Point-Like Sources of Ultra-High Energy Neutrinos at the Pierre Auger Observatory and Improved Limit on the Diffuse Flux of Tau Neutrinos
Pierre Auger Collaboration
The Surface Detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory can detect neutrinos with energy between 10^17 eV and 10^20 eV from point-like sources across the sky south of +55 deg an…
Radar reflection off extensive air showers
J. Stasielak, S. Baur, M. Bertaina +24
We investigate the possibility of detecting extensive air showers by the radar technique. Considering a bistatic radar system and different shower geometries, we simulate reflectio…
Description of Atmospheric Conditions at the Pierre Auger Observatory using the Global Data Assimilation System (GDAS)
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +499
Atmospheric conditions at the site of a cosmic ray observatory must be known for reconstructing observed extensive air showers. The Global Data Assimilation System (GDAS) is a glob…
