Measurement of the average shape of longitudinal profiles of cosmic-ray air showers at the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +385

The profile of the longitudinal development of showers produced by ultra-high energy cosmic rays carries information related to the interaction properties of the primary particles…

Large-scale cosmic-ray anisotropies above 4 EeV measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +374

We present a detailed study of the large-scale anisotropies of cosmic rays with energies above 4 EeV measured using the Pierre Auger Observatory. For the energy bins [4,8] EeV and…

A compact and light-weight refractive telescope for the observation of extensive air showers

T. Bretz, T. Hebbeker, J. Kemp +7

A general purpose instrument for imaging of Cherenkov light or fluorescence light emitted by extensive air showers is presented. Its refractive optics allows for a compact and ligh…

Indication of anisotropy in arrival directions of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays through comparison to the flux pattern of extragalactic gamma-ray sources

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +390

A new analysis of the dataset from the Pierre Auger Observatory provides evidence for anisotropy in the arrival directions of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays on an intermediate angul…
