Investigating double bump air showers with the SKA-Low
V. De Henau, S. Bouma, J. Bray +30
Double-bump showers are a rare class of extensive air showers (EAS) predicted by Monte Carlo simulations. They occur when a high-energy secondary particle, the leading particle, tr…
A LOFAR-style reconstruction of cosmic-ray air showers with SKA-Low
A. Corstanje, S. Buitink, S. Bouma +10
Cosmic-ray air shower detection with the low-frequency part of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) radio telescope is envisioned to yield very high precision measurements of the parti…
SMIET: Fast and accurate synthesis of radio pulses from extensive air shower using simulated templates
Mitja Desmet, Keito Watanabe, Tim Huege +1
Interpreting the data from radio detectors for extensive air showers typically relies on Monte-Carlo based simulation codes, which, despite their accuracy are computationally expen…
Cosmic ray detection with the LOFAR radio telescope
K. Terveer, S. Bouma, S. Buitink +15
The LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) has successfully measured cosmic rays for over a decade now. With its dense core of antenna fields in the Netherlands, it is an ideal tool for study…
