Modified hadronic interactions in 3-dimensional simulations
Jiří Blažek, Jan Ebr, Jakub Vícha +3
We present a method to test the impact of ad-hoc modifications of some of the generic parameters of hadronic interactions -- cross section, elasticity, and multiplicity -- on any o…
Update on testing of air-shower modelling using combined data of the Pierre Auger Observatory and phenomenological consequences
Jakub Vícha
The combined data of Fluorescence and Surface Detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory has recently provided the strongest constraints on the validity of predictions from current…
Science with the Global Cosmic-ray Observatory (GCOS)
Rafael Alves Batista
The Global Cosmic-ray Observatory (GCOS) is a proposed large-scale observatory for studying ultra-high-energy cosmic particles, including ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs), ph…
Arrival Directions of Cosmic Rays above 32 EeV from Phase One of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +372
A promising energy range to look for angular correlation between cosmic rays of extragalactic origin and their sources is at the highest energies, above few tens of EeV ($1\:{\rm E…
Search for Spatial Correlations of Neutrinos with Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Rays
The ANTARES collaboration, A. Albert, S. Alves +1042
For several decades, the origin of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) has been an unsolved question of high-energy astrophysics. One approach for solving this puzzle is to corr…
The UHECR dipole and quadrupole in the latest data from the original Auger and TA surface detectors
Peter Tinyakov, Luis Anchordoqui, Teresa Bister +13
The sources of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays are still unknown, but assuming standard physics, they are expected to lie within a few hundred megaparsecs from us. Indeed, over cosmo…
UHECR arrival directions in the latest data from the original Auger and TA surface detectors and nearby galaxies
Armando di Matteo, Luis Anchordoqui, Teresa Bister +13
The distribution of ultra-high-energy cosmic-ray arrival directions appears to be nearly isotropic except for a dipole moment of order per cent. None…
Design and implementation of the AMIGA embedded system for data acquisition
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +383
The Auger Muon Infill Ground Array (AMIGA) is part of the AugerPrime upgrade of the Pierre Auger Observatory. It consists of particle counters buried 2.3 m underground next to the…
Impact of atmospheric effects on the energy reconstruction of air showers observed by the surface detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
Atmospheric conditions, such as the pressure (P), temperature (T) or air density (), affect the development of extended air showers initiated by energetic cosmic rays…
A targeted search for point sources of EeV photons with the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +397
Simultaneous measurements of air showers with the fluorescence and surface detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory allow a sensitive search for EeV photon point sources. Several…
Search for ultrarelativistic magnetic monopoles with the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +411
We present a search for ultra-relativistic magnetic monopoles with the Pierre Auger Observatory. Such particles, possibly a relic of phase transitions in the early universe, would…
Evidence for a mixed mass composition at the `ankle' in the cosmic-ray spectrum
