Detecting Radio Pulses from Air Showers

Cosmic rays are energetic particles from outside the earth's atmosphere. When a high energy cosmic ray hits the atmosphere it triggers a cascade of secondary particles produced in nuclear interactions, an air shower. Up to now the established methods of measuring air showers are detection of th...

Zusammenfassung:Cosmic rays are energetic particles from outside the earth's atmosphere. When a high energy cosmic ray hits the atmosphere it triggers a cascade of secondary particles produced in nuclear interactions, an air shower. Up to now the established methods of measuring air showers are detection of the particles that reach the ground level or optical observation of the Cherenkov or fluorescent light.
