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…

The radiation mechanism of fast radio bursts

Qiwu Song, Yu Huang, Hengqiang Feng +7

Fast radio bursts are radio transients observed mainly around 1.5 GHz. Their peak frequency decreases at a rate of 100 ~ 500 MHz/s and some of them have a broader pulse with an exp…

Cold and warm electrons at comet 67P

A. I. Eriksson, I. A. D. Engelhardt, M. Andre +20

Strong electron cooling on the neutral gas in cometary comae has been predicted for a long time, but actual measurements of low electron temperature are scarce. We present in situ…

Prospects for CTA observations of the young SNR RX J1713.7-3946

The CTA Consortium, :, F. Acero +381

We perform simulations for future Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) observations of RX~J1713.73946, a young supernova remnant (SNR) and one of the brightest sources ever discovere…
