An improved limit to the diffuse flux of ultra-high energy neutrinos from the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, Alexander Aab, Pedro Abreu +462

Neutrinos in the cosmic ray flux with energies near 1 EeV and above are detectable with the Surface Detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory. We report here on searches throu…

Probing the radio emission from air showers with polarization measurements

Pierre Auger Collaboration

The emission of radio waves from air showers has been attributed to the so-called geomagnetic emission process. At frequencies around 50 MHz this process leads to coherent radiatio…
