The Air Microwave Yield (AMY) experiment investigate the molecular bremsstrahlung radiation emitted in the GHz regime from an electron beam induced air-shower .
The measurements have been performed with 510 MeV electron beam in a wide frequency range between 1 and 20 GHz.
We present the apparatus and the results of the tests performed at the Beam Test Facility (BTF) of Frascati INFN...

A detection technique of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) complementary to fluorescence and Radio techniques would be the use of the Molecular Bremsstrahlung Radiation (MBR) emitted by low energy electrons left after the passage of the showers in the atmosphere.
The emission mechanism is expected from quasi-elastic collisions of electrons produced in the shower by the ionization of...

The Cosmic-Ray Observation via Microwave Emission (CROME) experiment is designed to study GHz radio emissions from extensive air showers. Multiple radio antennas measure externally triggered by the KASCADE-Grande air-shower array. The experiment is designed to detect a potentially isotropic, unpolarized component as expected by molecular bremsstrahlung emission in the low-energy electron...

At the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) the microwave detector experiment CROME (Cosmic Ray Observation via Microwave Emission) has been built up. It was aimed to investigate radio emissions from cosmic ray air showers in L-Band (1.0 to 1.6 GHz) and the extended C-Band (3.4 to 4.2 GHz).
The final setup used high-gain parabolic reflector-type antennas which are illuminated either with...
