First Experimental Characterization of Microwave Emission from Cosmic Ray Air Showers
R. Smida, F. Werner, R. Engel +55
We report the first direct measurement of the overall characteristics of microwave radio emission from extensive air showers. Using a trigger provided by the KASCADE-Grande air sho…
Depth of Maximum of Air-Shower Profiles at the Pierre Auger Observatory: Composition Implications
Pierre Auger Collaboration
Using the data taken at the Pierre Auger Observatory between December 2004 and December 2012, we have examined the implications of the distributions of depths of atmospheric shower…
Reconstruction of the energy and depth of maximum of cosmic-ray air-showers from LOPES radio measurements
W. D. Apel, J. C. Arteaga-Velazquez, L. Bähren +53
LOPES is a digital radio interferometer located at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Germany, which measures radio emission from extensive air showers at MHz frequencies in…
A search for point sources of EeV photons
Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +483
Measurements of air showers made using the hybrid technique developed with the fluorescence and surface detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory allow a sensitive search for point…
Origin of atmospheric aerosols at the Pierre Auger Observatory using studies of air mass trajectories in South America
Pierre Auger Collaboration, Gabriele Curci
The Pierre Auger Observatory is making significant contributions towards understanding the nature and origin of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. One of its main challenges is the mon…
The wavefront of the radio signal emitted by cosmic ray air showers
W. D. Apel, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez, L. Bähren +53
Analyzing measurements of the LOPES antenna array together with corresponding CoREAS simulations for more than 300 measured events with energy above eV and zenith angles…
