104. Expected performance of the AugerPrime Radio Detector

Schlüter, Felix (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology - Institute for Astroparticlephysics)

6/8/22, 11:30 AM

The AugerPrime Radio Detector (RD) will increase the sky coverage and overall aperture for mass-sensitive measurements of ultra-high energy cosmic rays with the Pierre Auger Observatory. The installation of over 1600 dual-polarized short aperiodic loaded loop antennas on an area of about 3000$\,$km$^2$ will enable the detection of the electromagnetic radiation in the 30-80 MHz band from highly...

107. A continuously-operating standalone radio cosmic ray detection system at the OVRO-LWA

Plant, Kathryn

6/8/22, 11:50 AM

The new cosmic ray detection system at the Owens Valley Radio Observatory Long Wavelength array expands on methods introduced in a previous demonstration to use radio signals alone to trigger data capture, reject radio frequency interference, and reconstruct the air shower properties: energy, arrival direction, and Xmax. The Owens Valley Radio Observatory- Long Wavelength Array (OVRO-LWA) in...

101. Radio measurements of air-showers with an IceCube Surface Array station

Dujmovic, Hrvoje

6/8/22, 12:10 PM

The surface array of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory currently consists of 162 ice Cherenkov tanks and is used both as a veto for the in-ice neutrino observations and as a capable cosmic-ray detector. In order to further enhance the science case of the IceCube surface array, the existing detectors will be complemented by an array of scintillation panels and radio antennas. The scintillation...

98. Study of the Uncertainties of the Galactic Radio Background as a Calibration Source for Radio Arrays

Büsken, Max

6/8/22, 12:30 PM

The indirect detection of cosmic rays via the radio signal of extensive air showers is gaining a lot of ground. Many new arrays of radio antennas are under construction or in the phase of development. Calibrating these arrays is important for the reconstruction of observed events and for the comparability between observatories. Using reference antennas in calibration campaigns is not ideal...

121. Cross-calibrating the energy scales of cosmic-ray experiments using a portable radio array

Mulrey, Katharine (Radboud University)

6/8/22, 12:45 PM

We can understand cosmic-ray sources by measuring the energy of these particles and building models that describe the energy spectrum. However, at the highest end of the spectrum, energy scales between experiments are inconsistent. Comparing energy scales of different experiments has proven to be difficult, given that uncertainties on energy measurements depend on the location, technique, and...
