Ms Anna Nelles (Radboud University Nijmegen)11/06/2014, 09:00Weds AM I - Air Shower DetailThe detection of radio emission of air showers has rapidly advanced in the past years. New experiments have shed light on the details of the emission and air shower simulations provide rather accurate models of the measured emission. To exploit radio emission in large-scale experiments, a simple and analytic parametrization of the distribution of the radio signal at ground level is needed....Go to contribution page

Dr Stijn Buitink (Radboud University Nijmegen, Netherlands)11/06/2014, 09:20Weds AM I - Air Shower DetailLOFAR is a multipurpose radio telescope which can be used for radio detection of cosmic rays while running astronomical observations at the same time. In the dense core individual air showers are detected by hundreds of dipole antennas. The raw electromagnetic waveform as detected by each antenna is stored in a five-second ring buffer, which is read out when a trigger is issued by the LORA...Go to contribution page

Dr Qader Dorosti Hasankiadeh (Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT);)11/06/2014, 09:40Weds AM I - Air Shower DetailThe Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) aims to detect extensive air showers caused by the interactions of ultra-high energy cosmic rays with the Earth atmosphere, providing complementary information to the Auger surface, fluorescence and muon detectors. The second stage of AERA, currently consisting of 124 radio stations, has been completed at the Pierre Auger Observatory in early 2013, ...Go to contribution page

Mrs Olga Kambeitz (IEKP, KIT)11/06/2014, 10:00Weds AM I - Air Shower DetailAERA, the Auger Engineering Radio Array, located at the Pierre Auger Observatory in Malargüe, Argentina measures the radio emission of extensive air showers in the 30-80 MHz frequency range. It consists of 124 antenna stations of which 24 are log periodic dipole antennas (LPDAs) and 100 are so-called butterfly antennas. Both antenna types measure two electric field components (North-South and...Go to contribution page
