X-rays Emission: a novel tool to detect Extensive Air Showers
Rodrigo Alberto Torres Saavedra, Caterina Trimarelli, Roberto Aloisio +3
We investigate the feasibility of detecting extensive air showers via their geo-synchrotron X-ray emission from high-altitude platforms. Starting from first principles, we derive a…
The simulation chain for the Terzina Cherenkov telescope on board the NUSES space mission
M. Abdullahi, R. Aloisio, F. Arneodo +74
The Terzina telescope is designed to detect ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) and Earth-skimming neutrinos from a 550 km low-Earth orbit (LEO) by observing Cherenkov light emi…
Prospects for PBR detection of KM3-230213A-like events
Angela V. Olinto, Luis A. Anchordoqui, Austin Cummings +9
POEMMA-Balloon with Radio (PBR) is a scaled-down version of the Probe Of Extreme Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (POEMMA) design, optimized to be flown as a payload on one of NASA's s…
The Optical and Mechanical Design of POEMMA Balloon with Radio
Eric Mayotte, Austin Cummings, Paul Degarate +12
POEMMA Balloon with Radio (PBR) is a NASA super-pressure balloon mission building toward the proposed Probe Of Extreme Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (POEMMA) dual satellite mission.…
