Search for ultra-high energy photons through preshower effect with gamma-ray telescopes: Study of CTA-North efficiency
Kévin Almeida Cheminant, Dariusz Góra, David E. Alvarez Castillo +16
We study the feasibility of detecting preshower initiated by ultra-high energy photons using Monte-Carlo simulations of nearly horizontal air showers for the example of the La Palm…
Reconstruction of Events Recorded with the Surface Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +378
Cosmic rays arriving at Earth collide with the upper parts of the atmosphere, thereby inducing extensive air showers. When secondary particles from the cascade arrive at the ground…
Studies on the response of a water-Cherenkov detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory to atmospheric muons using an RPC hodoscope
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +375
Extensive air showers, originating from ultra-high energy cosmic rays, have been successfully measured through the use of arrays of water-Cherenkov detectors (WCDs). Sophisticated…
A communication solution for portable detectors of the Cosmic Ray Extremely Distributed Observatory
Katarzyna Smelcerz, Konrad Kopański, Wojciech Noga +17
The search for Cosmic-Ray Ensembles (CRE), groups of correlated cosmic rays that might be distributed over very large areas, even of the size of the planet, requires a globally spr…
Search for ultra-high energy photons: observing the preshower effect with gamma-ray telescopes
Kevin Almeida Cheminant, Dariusz Gora, David E. Alvarez Castillo +16
Ultra-high energy photons constitute one of the most important pieces of the astroparticle physics problems. Their observation may provide new insight on several phenomena such as…
Cosmic Ray Extremely Distributed Observatory: Status and perspectives of a global cosmic ray detection framework
Dariusz Gora, Kevin Almeida Cheminant, David E. Alvarez Castillo +19
The Cosmic-Ray Extremely Distributed Observatory (CREDO) is a project dedicated to global studies of extremely extended cosmic-ray phenomena, the cosmic-ray ensembles (CRE), beyond…
