Calibration of the Logarithmic-Periodic Dipole Antenna (LPDA) Radio Stations at the Pierre Auger Observatory using an Octocopter
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +402
An in-situ calibration of a logarithmic periodic dipole antenna with a frequency coverage of 30 MHz to 80 MHz is performed. Such antennas are part of a radio station system used fo…
Large scale distribution of ultra high energy cosmic rays detected at the Pierre Auger Observatory with zenith angles up to 80
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
We present the results of an analysis of the large angular scale distribution of the arrival directions of cosmic rays with energy above 4 EeV detected at the Pierre Auger Observat…
Depth of Maximum of Air-Shower Profiles at the Pierre Auger Observatory: Measurements at Energies above 10^17.8 eV
Pierre Auger Collaboration
We report a study of the distributions of the depth of maximum, Xmax, of extensive air-shower profiles with energies above 10^17.8 eV as observed with the fluorescence telescopes o…
Muons in air showers at the Pierre Auger Observatory: Mean number in highly inclined events
Pierre Auger Collaboration
We present the first hybrid measurement of the average muon number in air showers at ultra-high energies, initiated by cosmic rays with zenith angles between and $80^\ci…
Muons in air showers at the Pierre Auger Observatory: Measurement of atmospheric production depth
Pierre Auger Collaboration
The surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory provides information about the longitudinal development of the muonic component of extensive air showers. Using the timin…
Identifying Clouds over the Pierre Auger Observatory using Infrared Satellite Data
Pierre Auger Collaboration
We describe a new method of identifying night-time clouds over the Pierre Auger Observatory using infrared data from the Imager instruments on the GOES-12 and GOES-13 satellites. W…
A search for anisotropy in the arrival directions of ultra high energy cosmic rays recorded at the Pierre Auger Observatory
Pierre Auger Collaboration
Observations of cosmic ray arrival directions made with the Pierre Auger Observatory have previously provided evidence of anisotropy at the 99% CL using the correlation of ultra hi…
Measurement of the Depth of Maximum of Extensive Air Showers above 10^18 eV
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
We describe the measurement of the depth of maximum, Xmax, of the longitudinal development of air showers induced by cosmic rays. Almost four thousand events above 10^18 eV observe…
Atmospheric effects on extensive air showers observed with the Surface Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
Atmospheric parameters, such as pressure (P), temperature (T) and density, affect the development of extensive air showers initiated by energetic cosmic rays. We have studied the i…
Upper limit on the cosmic-ray photon flux above 10^19 eV using the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
A method is developed to search for air showers initiated by photons using data recorded by the surface detector of the Auger Observatory. The approach is based on observables sens…
Upper limit on the diffuse flux of UHE tau neutrinos from the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
The surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory is sensitive to Earth-skimming tau-neutrinos that interact in the Earth's crust. Tau leptons from charged-cur…
