$X_{max}^{\mu }$ vs. $N^{\mu }$ from Extensive Air Showers as estimator for the mass of primary UHECR's. Application for the Pierre Auger Observatory

Nicusor Arsene, Octavian Sima

We study the possibility of primary mass estimation for Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR's) using the $X_{max}^{\mu }$ (the height where the number of muons produced on the core of…
