Recent results from the KASCADE-Grande cosmic-ray experiment --- Test of hadronic interaction models with air-shower data
Jörg R. Hörandel, W. D. Apel, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez +49
Cosmic rays provide an unique approach to study hadronic interactions at high energies in the kinematic forward direction. The KASCADE air shower experiment was the first to conduc…
Inferences on Mass Composition and Tests of Hadronic Interactions from 0.3 to 100 EeV using the water-Cherenkov Detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +403
We present a new method for probing the hadronic interaction models at ultra-high energy and extracting details about mass composition. This is done using the time profiles of the…
KASCADE-Grande Limits on the Isotropic Diffuse Gamma-Ray Flux between 100 TeV and 1 EeV
Grande Collaboration, W. D. Apel, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez +48
KASCADE and KASCADE-Grande were multi-detector installations to measure individual air showers of cosmic rays at ultra-high energy. Based on data sets measured by KASCADE and KASCA…
Spectral Calibration of the Fluorescence Telescopes of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +403
We present a novel method to measure precisely the relative spectral response of the fluorescence telescopes of the Pierre Auger Observatory. We used a portable light source based…
Observation of a Large-scale Anisotropy in the Arrival Directions of Cosmic Rays above eV
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +404
Cosmic rays are atomic nuclei arriving from outer space that reach the highest energies observed in nature. Clues to their origin come from studying the distribution of their arriv…
