Lateral Distribution of the Radio Signal in Extensive Air Showers Measured with LOPES

LOPES Collaboration, W. D. Apel, J. C. Arteaga +71

The antenna array LOPES is set up at the location of the KASCADE-Grande extensive air shower experiment in Karlsruhe, Germany and aims to measure and investigate radio pulses from…

Energy Spectra of Elemental Groups of Cosmic Rays: Update on the KASCADE Unfolding Analysis

KASCADE Collaboration, W. D. Apel

The KASCADE experiment measures extensive air showers induced by cosmic rays in the energy range around the so-called knee. The data of KASCADE have been used in a composition anal…

Applying Shower Development Universality to KASCADE Data

W. D. Apel, A. F. Badea, K. Bekk +31

On basis of the theorem of a universal shower development stating that a hadronically generated extensive air shower is completely described by the primary energy, the position of…

Progress in Air Shower Radio Measurements: Detection of Distant Events

W. D. Apel, T. Asch, A. F. Badea +1

Data taken during half a year of operation of 10 LOPES antennas (LOPES-10), triggered by EAS observed with KASCADE-Grande have been analysed. We report about the analysis of correl…

Investigating the 2nd knee: The KASCADE-Grande experiment

Grande Collaboration, W. D. Apel, A. F. Badea

Recent results from the multi-detector set-up KASCADE on measurements of cosmic rays in the energy range of the so called "first" knee (at approx. 3 PeV) indicate a distinct knee i…

Detection and imaging of atmospheric radio flashes from cosmic ray air showers

H. Falcke, W. D. Apel, A. F. Badea

The nature of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) at energies >10^20 eV remains a mystery. They are likely to be of extragalactic origin, but should be absorbed within ~50 Mpc th…
