The sub-TeV transient Gamma-Ray sky: challenges and opportunities
G. La Mura, P. Assis, A. Blanco +29
The detection of gravitational waves and neutrinos from astrophysical sources with gamma-ray counterparts officially started the era of Multi-Messenger Astronomy. Their transient a…
The Pierre Auger Observatory Upgrade - Preliminary Design Report
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +462
The Pierre Auger Observatory has begun a major Upgrade of its already impressive capabilities, with an emphasis on improved mass composition determination using the surface detecto…
Status of the Silicon Photomultiplier Telescope FAMOUS for the Fluorescence Detection of UHECRs
Tim Niggemann, Pedro Assis, Pedro Brogueira +13
An established technique for the measurement of ultra-high-energy-cosmic-rays is the detection of the fluorescence light induced in the atmosphere of the Earth, by means of telesco…
Solar panels as cosmic-ray detectors
Carlo Stella, Michele Palatiello, Pedro Assis +5
Due to fundamental limitations of accelerators, only cosmic rays can give access to centre-of- mass energies more than one order of magnitude above those reached at the LHC. In fac…
Origin of atmospheric aerosols at the Pierre Auger Observatory using studies of air mass trajectories in South America
Pierre Auger Collaboration, Gabriele Curci
The Pierre Auger Observatory is making significant contributions towards understanding the nature and origin of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. One of its main challenges is the mon…
Antennas for the Detection of Radio Emission Pulses from Cosmic-Ray induced Air Showers at the Pierre Auger Observatory
P. Abreu, M. Aglietta, M. Ahlers +512
The Pierre Auger Observatory is exploring the potential of the radio detection technique to study extensive air showers induced by ultra-high energy cosmic rays. The Auger Engineer…
