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…

New measurement on photon yields from air and the application to the energy estimation of primary cosmic rays

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

The air fluorescence technique is used to detect ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECR), and to estimate their energy. Of fundamental importance is the photon yield due to excitatio…

Energy determination in the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array experiment

M. Takeda, N. Sakaki, K. Honda +29

Using data from more than ten-years of observations with the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array (AGASA), we published a result that the energy spectrum of ultra-high energy cosmic rays e…
