INFN Camera demonstrator for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
G. Ambrosi, M. Ambrosio, C. Aramo +46
The Cherenkov Telescope Array is a world-wide project for a new generation of ground-based Cherenkov telescopes of the Imaging class with the aim of exploring the highest energy re…
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…
The Air Microwave Yield (AMY) experiment - A laboratory measurement of the microwave emission from extensive air showers
K. Louedec, J. Alvarez-Muñiz, M. Blanco +31
The AMY experiment aims to measure the microwave bremsstrahlung radiation (MBR) emitted by air-showers secondary electrons accelerating in collisions with neutral molecules of the…
Precise measurement of the absolute fluorescence yield of the 337 nm band in atmospheric gases
AIRFLY Collaboration, M. Ave, M. Bohacova +29
A measurement of the absolute fluorescence yield of the 337 nm nitrogen band, relevant to ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) detectors, is reported. Two independent calibrations…
Trigger and Aperture of the Surface Detector Array of the Pierre Auger Observatory
J. Abraham, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +469
The surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory consists of 1600 water-Cherenkov detectors, for the study of extensive air showers (EAS) generated by ultra-high-energy c…
Advanced functionality for radio analysis in the Offline software framework of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +468
The advent of the Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) necessitates the development of a powerful framework for the analysis of radio measurements of cosmic ray air showers. As AER…
The Fluorescence Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, J. Abraham, P. Abreu +515
The Pierre Auger Observatory is a hybrid detector for ultra-high energy cosmic rays. It combines a surface array to measure secondary particles at ground level together with a fluo…
