The shower size parameter as estimator of extensive air shower energy in fluorescence telescopes
Vitor de Souza, Gustavo Medina-Tanco, Jeferson A. Ortiz +1
The fluorescence technique has been successfully used to detect ultrahigh energy cosmic rays by indirect measurements. The underlying idea is that the number of charged particles i…
The importance of muon information on primary mass discrimination of ultra-high energy cosmic rays
D. Supanitsky, A. Tiba, G. Medina-Tanco +7
Several methods can be used to perform statistical inference of primary composition of cosmic rays measured with water Cerenkov detectors as those in use at the Pierre Auger Southe…
Acceptance of fluorescence detectors and its implication in energy spectrum inference at the highest energies
Vitor de Souza, Gustavo Medina-Tanco, Jeferson A. Ortiz
Along the years HiRes and AGASA experiments have explored the fluorescence and the ground array experimental techniques to measure extensive air showers, being both essential to in…
Analysis of extensive air showers with the hybrid code SENECA
Jeferson A. Ortiz, Vitor de Souza, Gustavo Medina-Tanco
The ultrahigh energy tail of the cosmic ray spectrum has been explored with unprecedented detail. For this reason, new experiments are exerting a severe pressure on extensive air s…
Analysis of shower size as estimator of extensive air shower energy
Vitor de Souza, Jeferson A. Ortiz, Gustavo Medina-Tanco +1
The fluorescence technique has been successfully used to detect ultrahigh energy cosmic rays by indirect measurements. The underlying idea is that the number of charged particles i…
Acceptance of fluorescence detectors for photons and its implication in energy spectrum inference at the highest energies
Vitor de Souza, Gustavo Medina-Tanco, Jeferson A. Ortiz
The HiRes and AGASA Collaborations have published contradictory energy spectra for energies above the GZK cut-off. In this article, we investigate the acceptance of fluorescence te…
