Measurement of Radio Emission from Extensive Air Showers with LOPES
J. R. Hoerandel
A new method is explored to detect extensive air showers: the measurement of radio waves emitted during the propagation of the electromagnetic shower component in the magnetic fiel…
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…
The WMAP haze from the Galactic Center region due to massive star explosions and a reduced cosmic ray scale height
Peter L. Biermann, Julia K. Becker, Gabriel Caceres +3
One important prediction of acceleration of particles in the supernova caused shock in the magnetic wind of exploding Wolf Rayet and Red Super Giant stars is the production of an e…
Renormalized spin coefficients in the accumulated orbital phase for unequal mass black hole binaries
László Á. Gergely, Peter L. Biermann, Balázs Mikóczi +1
We analyze galactic black hole mergers and their emitted gravitational waves. Such mergers have typically unequal masses with mass ratio of the order 1/10. The emitted gravitationa…
The mass function of nearby black hole candidates
Laurentiu I. Caramete, Peter L. Biermann
The mass function of super-massive black holes in our cosmic neighborhood is required to understand the statistics of their activity and consequently the origin of the ultra high e…
Neutrinos from photo-hadronic interactions in Pks2155-304
Julia K. Becker, Athina Meli, Peter L. Biermann
The high-peaked BL Lac object Pks2155-304 shows high variability at multiwavelengths, i.e. from optical up to TeV energies. A giant flare of around 1 hour at X-ray and TeV energies…
The Fluorescence Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, J. Abraham, P. Abreu +515
The Pierre Auger Observatory is a hybrid detector for ultra-high energy cosmic rays. It combines a surface array to measure secondary particles at ground level together with a fluo…
Operations of and Future Plans for the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, J. Abraham, P. Abreu +469
Technical reports on operations and features of the Pierre Auger Observatory, including ongoing and planned enhancements and the status of the future northern hemisphere portion of…
Astrophysical Sources of Cosmic Rays and Related Measurements with the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, J. Abraham, P. Abreu +469
Studies of the correlations of ultra-high energy cosmic ray directions with extra-Galactic objects, of general anisotropy, of photons and neutrinos, and of other astrophysical effe…
The Cosmic Ray Energy Spectrum and Related Measurements with the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, J. Abraham, P. Abreu +469
Studies of the cosmic ray energy spectrum at the highest energies with the Pierre Auger Observatory.
Calibration and Monitoring of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, J. Abraham, P. Abreu +470
Reports on the atmospheric monitoring, calibration, and other operating systems of the Pierre Auger Observatory. Contributions to the 31st International Cosmic Ray Conference, Lodz…
Studies of Cosmic Ray Composition and Air Shower Structure with the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, J. Abraham, P. Abreu +470
Studies of the composition of the highest energy cosmic rays with the Pierre Auger Observatory, including examination of hadronic physics effects on the structure of extensive air…
On the detectability of primordial black holes in the Galaxy
Julia K. Becker, Marek A. Abramowicz, Peter L. Biermann
In the mass range of 1e15 g up to 1e26 g, primordial black holes (PBHs) as a possible contribution to the dark matter are still unexplored. In this contribution, we investigate the…
Upper limit on the cosmic-ray photon fraction at EeV energies from the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, J. Abraham, P. Abreu +458
From direct observations of the longitudinal development of ultra-high energy air showers performed with the Pierre Auger Observatory, upper limits of 3.8%, 2.4%, 3.5% and 11.7% (a…
Cosmic ray electrons and positrons from supernova explosions of massive stars
P. L. Biermann, J. K. Becker, A. Meli +3
We attribute the recently discovered cosmic ray electron and cosmic ray positron excess components and their cutoffs to the acceleration in the supernova shock in the polar cap of…
Cosmic Rays VI - Starburst galaxies at multiwavelengths
Julia K. Becker, Peter L. Biermann, Jens Dreyer +1
We propose an explanation for the far-infrared/radio correlation of galaxies in terms of the energy balance of the interstellar medium and determine the flux from high-energy photo…
