Depth of shower maximum and mass composition of cosmic rays from 50 PeV to 2 EeV measured with the LOFAR radio telescope

A. Corstanje, S. Buitink, H. Falcke +14

We present an updated cosmic-ray mass composition analysis in the energy range to eV from 334 air showers measured with the LOFAR radio telescope, and selec…

Reconstructing air shower parameters with LOFAR using event specific GDAS atmospheres

P. Mitra, A. Bonardi, A. Corstanje +15

The limited knowledge of atmospheric parameters like humidity, pressure, temperature, and the index of refraction has been one of the important systematic uncertainties in reconstr…

On the cosmic-ray energy scale of the LOFAR radio telescope

K. Mulrey, S. Buitink, A. Corstanje +14

Cosmic rays are routinely measured at LOFAR, both with a dense array of antennas and with the LOFAR Radboud air shower Array (LORA) which is an array of plastic scintillators. In t…

Cosmic Ray Physics with the LOFAR Radio Telescope

T Winchen, A Bonardi, S Buitink +14

The LOFAR radio telescope is able to measure the radio emission from cosmic ray induced air showers with hundreds of individual antennas. This allows for precision testing of the e…

Status of the Lunar Detection Mode for Cosmic Particles of LOFAR

T. Winchen, A. Bonardi, S. Buitink +14

Cosmic particles hitting Earth's moon produce radio emission via the Askaryan effect. If the resulting radio ns-pulse can be detected by radio telescopes, this technique potentiall…

Analytic calculation of radio emission from parameterized extensive air showers, a tool to extract shower parameters

Olaf Scholten, Gia Trinh, Krijn D. de Vries +1

The radio intensity and polarization footprint of a cosmic-ray induced extensive air shower is determined by the time-dependent structure of the current distribution residing in th…
