KASCADE: Astrophysical results and tests of hadronic interaction models
A. Haungs, T. Antoni
KASCADE is a multi-detector setup to get redundant information on single air shower basis. The information is used to perform multiparameter analyses to solve the threefold problem…
First Results of Fast One-dimensional Hybrid Simulation of EAS Using CONEX
T. Pierog, M. K. Alekseeva, T. Bergmann +8
A hybrid simulation code is developed that is suited for fast one-dimensional simulations of shower profiles, including fluctuations. It combines the Monte Carlo simulation of high…
On a possible photon origin of the most-energetic AGASA events
P. Homola, M. Risse, R. Engel +5
In this work the ultra high energy cosmic ray events recorded by the AGASA experiment are analysed. With detailed simulations of the extensive air showers initiated by photons, the…
On the primary particle type of the most energetic Fly's Eye event
M. Risse, P. Homola, R. Engel +5
The longitudinal profile of the 320 EeV event observed by the Fly's Eye experiment is analysed. A method of testing the hypothesis of a specific primary particle type is described.…
Low Energy Hadronic Interaction Models
D. Heck
Different interaction models treating hadronic collisions below E_lab < 100 GeV in air shower simulations are compared within the frame of the CORSIKA program. Their behaviour is s…
Cosmic Ray Energy Spectra and Mass Composition at the Knee - Recent Results from KASCADE -
K. -H. Kampert
Recent results from the KASCADE experiment on measurements of cosmic rays in the energy range of the knee are presented. Emphasis is placed on energy spectra of individual mass gro…
Was the Highest Energy Cosmic Ray a Photon?
P. Homola, M. Risse, D. Gora +5
The hypothetical photonic origin of the most energetic air shower detected by the Fly's Eye experiment is discussed. The method used for the analysis is based on Monte Carlo simula…
Primary Proton Spectrum of Cosmic Rays measured with Single Hadrons
T. Antoni, KASCADE Collaboration
The flux of cosmic-ray induced single hadrons near sea level has been measured with the large hadron calorimeter of the KASCADE experiment. The measurement corroborates former resu…
Simulation of air shower image in fluorescence light based on energy deposits derived from CORSIKA
D. Gora, D. Heck, P. Homola +5
Spatial distributions of energy deposited by an extensive air shower in the atmosphere through ionization, as obtained from the CORSIKA simulation program, are used to find the flu…
Search for cosmic-ray point sources with KASCADE
T. Antoni
A survey of the northern hemisphere for astrophysical point sources with continuous emission of high-energy cosmic rays is presented. Around 47 Mio extensive air showers with prima…
