The FRAM robotic telescope for atmospheric monitoring at the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +377
FRAM (F/Photometric Robotic Atmospheric Monitor) is a robotic telescope operated at the Pierre Auger Observatory in Argentina for the purposes of atmospheric monitoring using stell…
Deep-Learning based Reconstruction of the Shower Maximum using the Water-Cherenkov Detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +370
The atmospheric depth of the air shower maximum is an observable commonly used for the determination of the nuclear mass composition of ultra-high energy cosmic…
Calibration of the underground muon detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +370
To obtain direct measurements of the muon content of extensive air showers with energy above eV, the Pierre Auger Observatory is currently being equipped with an underg…
Design, upgrade and characterization of the silicon photomultiplier front-end for the AMIGA detector at the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +357
AMIGA (Auger Muons and Infill for the Ground Array) is an upgrade of the Pierre Auger Observatory to complement the study of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECR) by measuring the…
Reconstruction of Events Recorded with the Surface Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +378
Cosmic rays arriving at Earth collide with the upper parts of the atmosphere, thereby inducing extensive air showers. When secondary particles from the cascade arrive at the ground…
Studies on the response of a water-Cherenkov detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory to atmospheric muons using an RPC hodoscope
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +375
Extensive air showers, originating from ultra-high energy cosmic rays, have been successfully measured through the use of arrays of water-Cherenkov detectors (WCDs). Sophisticated…
Detection of thermal neutrons with the PRISMA-YBJ array in Extensive Air Showers selected by the ARGO-YBJ experiment
B. Bartoli, P. Bernardini, X. J. Bi +79
We report on a measurement of thermal neutrons, generated by the hadronic component of extensive air showers (EAS), by means of a small array of EN-detectors developed for the PRIS…
Study of the diffuse gamma-ray emission from the Galactic plane with ARGO-YBJ
B. Bartoli, P. Bernardini, X. J. Bi +78
The events recorded by ARGO-YBJ in more than five years of data collection have been analyzed to determine the diffuse gamma-ray emission in the Galactic plane at Galactic longitud…
The analog Resistive Plate Chamber detector of the ARGO-YBJ experiment
B. Bartoli, P. Bernardini, X. J. Bi +68
The ARGO-YBJ experiment has been in stable data taking from November 2007 till February 2013 at the YangBaJing Cosmic Ray Observatory (4300 m a.s.l.). The detector consists of a si…
Azimuthal modulation of cosmic ray flux as an effect of geomagnetic field in the ARGO-YBJ experiment
P. Bernardini, A. D'Amone, H. H. He +3
The geomagnetic field causes not only the East-West effect on the primary cosmic rays but also affects the trajectories of the secondary charged particles in the shower, causing th…
