The UHECR dipole and quadrupole in the latest data from the original Auger and TA surface detectors

Peter Tinyakov, Luis Anchordoqui, Teresa Bister +13

The sources of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays are still unknown, but assuming standard physics, they are expected to lie within a few hundred megaparsecs from us. Indeed, over cosmo…

UHECR arrival directions in the latest data from the original Auger and TA surface detectors and nearby galaxies

Armando di Matteo, Luis Anchordoqui, Teresa Bister +13

The distribution of ultra-high-energy cosmic-ray arrival directions appears to be nearly isotropic except for a dipole moment of order per cent. None…

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…

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…

Combined fit of spectrum and composition data as measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +397

We present a combined fit of a simple astrophysical model of UHECR sources to both the energy spectrum and mass composition data measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory. The fit h…

Multi-resolution anisotropy studies of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays detected at the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +400

We report a multi-resolution search for anisotropies in the arrival directions of cosmic rays detected at the Pierre Auger Observatory with local zenith angles up to and…

Search for ultrarelativistic magnetic monopoles with the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +411

We present a search for ultra-relativistic magnetic monopoles with the Pierre Auger Observatory. Such particles, possibly a relic of phase transitions in the early universe, would…

Evidence for a mixed mass composition at the `ankle' in the cosmic-ray spectrum

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +423

We report a first measurement for ultra-high energy cosmic rays of the correlation between the depth of shower maximum and the signal in the water Cherenkov stations of air-showers…
