Wavelength-shifting light traps for SWGO and other applications
M. Pihet, M. Mariotti, C. Arcaro
Wavelength-shifting (WLS) materials contain molecules that absorb light and reemit at longer wavelengths. They can be used for light detection because they provide a large effectiv…
An update on site search activities for SWGO
M. Santander, U. Barres de Almeida, J. A. Bellido +19
The Southern Wide-field Gamma-ray Observatory (SWGO) is a project by scientists and engineers from 14 countries and 78 institutions to design and build the first wide-field, ground…
The Terzina instrument onboard the NUSES space mission
R. Aloisio, L. Burmistrov, A. Di Giovanni +3
In this paper we will introduce the Terzina instrument, which is one of the two scientific payloads of the NUSES satellite mission. NUSES serves as a technological pathfinder, host…
Design and implementation of the AMIGA embedded system for data acquisition
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +383
The Auger Muon Infill Ground Array (AMIGA) is part of the AugerPrime upgrade of the Pierre Auger Observatory. It consists of particle counters buried 2.3 m underground next to the…
Data-driven estimation of the invisible energy of cosmic ray showers with the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +389
The determination of the primary energy of extensive air showers using the fluorescence detection technique requires an estimation of the energy carried away by particles that do n…
Muon Counting using Silicon Photomultipliers in the AMIGA detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +422
AMIGA (Auger Muons and Infill for the Ground Array) is an upgrade of the Pierre Auger Observatory designed to extend its energy range of detection and to directly measure the muon…
Impact of atmospheric effects on the energy reconstruction of air showers observed by the surface detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
Atmospheric conditions, such as the pressure (P), temperature (T) or air density (), affect the development of extended air showers initiated by energetic cosmic rays…
Calibration of the Logarithmic-Periodic Dipole Antenna (LPDA) Radio Stations at the Pierre Auger Observatory using an Octocopter
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +402
An in-situ calibration of a logarithmic periodic dipole antenna with a frequency coverage of 30 MHz to 80 MHz is performed. Such antennas are part of a radio station system used fo…
Identifying Clouds over the Pierre Auger Observatory using Infrared Satellite Data
Pierre Auger Collaboration
We describe a new method of identifying night-time clouds over the Pierre Auger Observatory using infrared data from the Imager instruments on the GOES-12 and GOES-13 satellites. W…
The Pierre Auger Observatory V: Enhancements
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +493
Ongoing and planned enhancements of the Pierre Auger Observatory
Atmospheric effects on extensive air showers observed with the Surface Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
Atmospheric parameters, such as pressure (P), temperature (T) and density, affect the development of extensive air showers initiated by energetic cosmic rays. We have studied the i…
