Energy spectra of KASCADE-Grande based on shower size measurements and different hadronic interaction models

D. Kang, W. D. Apel, J. C. Arteaga-Velazquez +54

KASCADE-Grande is dedicated for investigations of cosmic-ray air showers in the primary energy range from 10 PeV to 1 EeV. The multi-detector system allows us to reconstruct charge…

Comparing LOPES measurements of air-shower radio emission with REAS 3.11 and CoREAS simulations

W. D. Apel, J. C. Arteaga, L. Bähren +52

Cosmic ray air showers emit radio pulses at MHz frequencies, which can be measured with radio antenna arrays - like LOPES at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany. To im…

High-energy cosmic rays measured with KASCADE-Grande

A. Haungs, W. D. Apel, J. C. Arteaga-Velazquez +54

The detection of high-energy cosmic rays above a few hundred TeV is realized by the observation of extensive air-showers. By using the multi-detector setup of KASCADE-Grande, energ…

Mass sensitivity in the radio lateral distribution function

W. D. Apel, J. C. Arteaga, L. Bähren +56

Measuring the mass composition of ultra-high energy cosmic rays is one of the main tasks in the cosmic rays field. Here we are exploring the composition signature in the coherent e…

Ankle-like Feature in the Energy Spectrum of Light Elements of Cosmic Rays Observed with KASCADE-Grande

W. D. Apel, J. C. Arteaga-Velàzquez, K. Bekk +54

Recent results of the KASCADE-Grande experiment provided evidence for a mild knee-like structure in the all-particle spectrum of cosmic rays at $E = 10^{16.92 \pm 0.10} \, \mathrm{…

Thunderstorm Observations by Air-Shower Radio Antenna Arrays

W. D. Apel, J. C. Arteaga, L. Bähren +57

Relativistic, charged particles present in extensive air showers lead to a coherent emission of radio pulses which are measured to identify the shower initiating high-energy cosmic…
