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…

Nitrogen fluorescence in air for observing extensive air showers

B. Keilhauer, M. Bohacova, M. Fraga +5

Extensive air showers initiate the fluorescence emissions from nitrogen molecules in air. The UV-light is emitted isotropically and can be used for observing the longitudinal devel…

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…
