Depth of Maximum of Air-Shower Profiles at the Pierre Auger Observatory: Composition Implications
Pierre Auger Collaboration
Using the data taken at the Pierre Auger Observatory between December 2004 and December 2012, we have examined the implications of the distributions of depths of atmospheric shower…
A method for high precision reconstruction of air shower Xmax using two-dimensional radio intensity profiles
S. Buitink, A. Corstanje, J. E. Enriquez +10
The mass composition of cosmic rays contains important clues about their origin. Accurate measurements are needed to resolve long-standing issues such as the transition from Galact…
Lunar detection of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays and neutrinos with the Square Kilometre Array
J. D. Bray, J. Alvarez-Muñiz, S. Buitink +12
The origin of the most energetic particles in nature, the ultra-high-energy (UHE) cosmic rays, is still a mystery. Only the most energetic of these have sufficiently small angular…
Precision measurements of cosmic ray air showers with the SKA
T. Huege, J. D. Bray, S. Buitink +8
Supplemented with suitable buffering techniques, the low-frequency part of the SKA can be used as an ultra-precise detector for cosmic-ray air showers at very high energies. This w…
Polarized radio emission from extensive air showers measured with LOFAR
P. Schellart, S. Buitink, A. Corstanje +10
We present LOFAR measurements of radio emission from extensive air showers. We find that this emission is strongly polarized, with a median degree of polarization of nearly ,…
Origin of atmospheric aerosols at the Pierre Auger Observatory using studies of air mass trajectories in South America
Pierre Auger Collaboration, Gabriele Curci
The Pierre Auger Observatory is making significant contributions towards understanding the nature and origin of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. One of its main challenges is the mon…
