A new method for reconstructing the muon lateral distribution with an array of segmented counters
(Elsevier Science, 2015-01)
Although the origin of ultra high energy cosmic rays is still unknown, significant progress has been achieved in last decades with the construction of large arrays that are currently taking data. One of the most important ...
A composition dependent energy scale and the determination of the cosmic ray primary mass in the ankle region
(Elsevier, 2015-02)
At present there are still several open questions about the origin of the ultra high energy cosmic rays. However, great progress in this area has been made in recent years due to the data collected by the present generation ...
Reconstruction of air shower muon densities using segmented counters with time resolution
(Elsevier Science, 2016-06)
Despite the significant experimental effort made in the last decades, the origin of the ultra-high energy cosmic rays is still largely unknown. Key astrophysical information to identify where these energetic particles come ...
The KASCADE-Grande energy spectrum of cosmic rays and the role of hadronic interaction models
(ElsevierAmsterdam, 2014-05)
Previous results obtained by KASCADE-Grande using the QGSjetII-02 hadronic interaction model have shown that the energy spectrum of cosmic rays between '10 POT. 16' eV and '10 POT. 18' eV exhibits a significant hardening ...
Statistical methods applied to composition studies of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays
(Elsevier Science BvAmsterdamHolanda, 2007)
The cosmic ray spectrum and composition measured by KASCADE-Grande between '10 POT. 16' eV and '10 POT. 18' eV
(Elsevier BVAmsterdam, 2014-11)
The shape and composition of the primary spectrum of cosmic rays are key elements to understand the origin, acceleration and propagation of the Galactic cosmic rays. Besides the well known knee and ankle features, the ...
