Effect of interplanetary shock waves on turbulence parameters

Emilia Kilpua, Simon Good, Juska Soljento +6

We have performed an extensive statistical investigation of how interplanetary fast forward shocks affect certain turbulence parameters, namely, the cross-helicity, , residual…

A search for anisotropy in the arrival directions of ultra high energy cosmic rays recorded at the Pierre Auger Observatory

Pierre Auger Collaboration

Observations of cosmic ray arrival directions made with the Pierre Auger Observatory have previously provided evidence of anisotropy at the 99% CL using the correlation of ultra hi…

Measurement of the proton-air cross-section at TeV with the Pierre Auger Observatory

Pierre Auger Collaboration

We report a measurement of the proton-air cross-section for particle production at the center-of-mass energy per nucleon of 57 TeV. This is derived from the distribution of the dep…

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…

The Lateral Trigger Probability function for the Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Ray Showers detected by the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +495

In this paper we introduce the concept of Lateral Trigger Probability (LTP) function, i.e., the probability for an extensive air shower (EAS) to trigger an individual detector of a…

The exposure of the hybrid detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration

The Pierre Auger Observatory is a detector for ultra-high energy cosmic rays. It consists of a surface array to measure secondary particles at ground level and a fluorescence detec…
