Search for ultra-high energy neutrons from Galactic sources with the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Abdul Halim, P. Abreu +357
Deflections in the propagation of charged ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) caused by magnetic fields make the identification of their sources challenging. On the other hand,…
Measuring the muon content of inclined air showers using AERA and the water-Cherenkov detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Abdul Halim, P. Abreu +360
We present a novel approach for assessing the muon content of air showers with large zenith angles on a combined analysis of their radio emission and particle footprint. We use the…
Quasi-constant time gap in multiple rings of elves
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Abdul Halim, P. Abreu +359
We present evidence that the time delay between the multiple rings of elves is not caused by the ground reflection of the electromagnetic pulse produced by intracloud lightning. To…
Search for a diffuse flux of photons with energies above tens of PeV at the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Abdul Halim, P. Abreu +359
Diffuse photons of energy above 0.1 PeV, produced through the interactions between cosmic rays and either interstellar matter or background radiation fields, are powerful tracers o…
The distribution of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays along the supergalactic plane measured at the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Abdul Halim, P. Abreu +364
Ultra-high-energy cosmic rays are known to be mainly of extragalactic origin, and their propagation is limited by energy losses, so their arrival directions are expected to correla…
Radio Measurements of the Depth of Air-Shower Maximum at the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Abdul Halim, P. Abreu +372
The Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA), part of the Pierre Auger Observatory, is currently the largest array of radio antenna stations deployed for the detection of cosmic rays,…
