- Ultra-high energy cosmic ray composition study using the radio detection technique, BP.PD
Abstract
This project falls in the field of astroparticle physics, more specifically in the area of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. Discrepancies between the results of the major experiments regarding the composition of ultra-high energy cosmic rays illustrate the fact that this composition is not yet clear. Thus we propose this project, which focuses in the use of the radio detection technique f...
- Optimization of the OVRO-LWA radio array for cosmic-ray detection, BE.EP.PD
Abstract
In this project we propose to optimize the planned expansion of the OVRO-LWA array for cosmic-ray detection, aiming at increasing the feasibility of a composition analysis. This will consist of Monte Carlo studies using ZHAireS simulations to obtain the optimal positions for the deployment of the new antennas. We'll then analyze the capability of the extended array to perform mass compo...
