Inferences on Mass Composition and Tests of Hadronic Interactions from 0.3 to 100 EeV using the water-Cherenkov Detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +403

We present a new method for probing the hadronic interaction models at ultra-high energy and extracting details about mass composition. This is done using the time profiles of the…

Spectral Calibration of the Fluorescence Telescopes of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +403

We present a novel method to measure precisely the relative spectral response of the fluorescence telescopes of the Pierre Auger Observatory. We used a portable light source based…

A simulation chain for the LAGO Space Weather Program

Hernan Asorey, Luis A. Núñez, Mauricio Suárez-Durán

We simulate the expected variations of background flux at two particular sites of the Latin American Giant Observatory (LAGO) and found that these fluxes are sensible to the latitu…

Astroparticle Techniques: Colombia active volcano candidates for Muon Telescope observation sites

H. Asorey, A. Balaguera-Rojas, L. A. Núñez +5

We discuss a methodology to identify observation points for muongraphy of active Colombian Volcanoes and it is found that only Cerro Machin can be studied.

Astroparticle Techniques: Simulating Cosmic Rays induced Background Radiation on Aircrafts

H. Asorey, L. A. Núñez, C. Y. Pérez Arias +3

Incident cosmic ray fluxes over flying aircrafts are compared with those in Bucaramanga, Colombia and very significant differences are observed for proton and neutron fluxes. We al…
