Proton-air interaction properties at TeV from shower-depth measurements with the Pierre Auger Observatory and their connection to the Muon Puzzle

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Abdul Halim, P. Abreu +347

Hybrid measurements at the Pierre Auger Observatory indicate that most high-energy hadronic interaction models underestimate the average depth of the shower maximum, $\langle X_{\m…

Extraction of the Muon Signals Recorded with the Surface Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory Using Recurrent Neural Networks

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +370

The Pierre Auger Observatory, at present the largest cosmic-ray observatory ever built, is instrumented with a ground array of 1600 water-Cherenkov detectors, known as the Surface…

Measurement of the fluctuations in the number of muons in extensive air showers with the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +365

We present the first measurement of the fluctuations in the number of muons in extensive air showers produced by ultrahigh energy cosmic rays. We find that the measured fluctuation…

Testing Hadronic Interactions at Ultrahigh Energies with Air Showers Measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +435

Ultrahigh energy cosmic ray air showers probe particle physics at energies beyond the reach of accelerators. Here we introduce a new method to test hadronic interaction models with…

Measurement of neutrino oscillations by means of a high density detector on the atmospheric neutrino beam

M. Aglietta, M. Ambrosio, E. Aprile +28

A high-density calorimeter, consisting of magnetized iron planes interleaved by RPCs, as tracking and timing devices, is a good candidate for a next generation experiment on atmosp…

Muon `Depth -- Intensity' Relation Measured by LVD Underground Experiment and Cosmic-Ray Muon Spectrum at Sea Level

M. Aglietta

We present the analysis of the muon events with all muon multiplicities collected during 21804 hours of operation of the first LVD tower. The measured angular distribution of muon…
