Status and first results of Tunka-Rex, an experiment for the radio detection of air showers
Tunka-Rex is a new radio detector for extensive air showers from cosmic rays, built in 2012 as an extension to Tunka133. The latter is a non-imaging air-Cherenkov detector, located near Lake Baikal, Siberia. With its 25 radio antennas, Tunka-Rex extends over an area of 1 km2 with a spacing of 200 m and therefore is expected to be sensitive to an primary energy range of approximately 1017-1018 e...
متن کاملMeasurement of Radio Emission from Extensive Air Showers with LOPES
A new method is explored to detect extensive air showers: the measurement of radio waves emitted during the propagation of the electromagnetic shower component in the magnetic field of the Earth. Recent results of the pioneering experiment LOPES are discussed. It registers radio signals in the frequency range between 40 and 80 MHz. The intensity of the measured radio emission is investigated as...
متن کاملPolarized radio emission from extensive air showers measured with LOFAR
We present LOFAR measurements of radio emission from extensive air showers. We find that this emission is strongly polarized, with a median degree of polarization of nearly 99%, and that the angle between the polarization direction of the electric field and the Lorentz force acting on the particles, depends on the observer location in the shower plane. This can be understood as a superposition ...
متن کاملfor extensive air showers
The new hadronic Monte Carlo model QGSJET-II is applied for extensive air shower (EAS) calculations. The obtained results are compared to the predictions of the original QGSJET and of the SIBYLL 2.1 interaction models. It is shown that non-linear effects change substantially model predictions for hadron-nucleus interactions and produce observable effects for calculated EAS characteristics. Fina...
