Fluorescence in damp air and comments on the radiative life time

N. Sakaki, K. Kobayakawa, M. Nagano +1

Photon yields in damp air excited by an electron using a Sr90 source are compared withthose in dry air. Water vapors considerably reduce the yields, however, a further study is…

Photon yields from nitrogen gas and dry air excited by electrons

M. Nagano, K. Kobayakawa, N. Sakaki +1

In order to detect ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECR), atmospheric fluorescence light from the trajectory of the extensive air shower may be measured by mirror-photosensor system…

Updated AGASA event list above 4x10^19eV

N. Hayashida, K. Honda, N. Inoue +26

After our Ap.J. publication of the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array (AGASA) results in 1999 (Takeda et al., 1999), we observed nine events with energies above 4 10eV un…

Small-scale anisotropy of cosmic rays above 10^19eV observed with the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array

M. Takeda, N. Hayashida, K. Honda +25

With the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array (AGASA), 581 cosmic rays above 10^19eV, 47 above 4 x 10^19eV, and 7 above 10^20eV are observed until August 1998. Arrival direction distributi…
