Antennas for the Detection of Radio Emission Pulses from Cosmic - Ray induced Air Showers at the Pierre Auger Observatory

The radio stations are used to reconstruct the electric field emitted by cosmic particle induced air showers which gives, e.g., a precise measurement of the energy contained in the electromagnetic shower.

The Pierre Auger Observatory offers a unique chance for the observation of photon - induced air showers and a search for photons with energies above 1018 eV has been performed using the data collected between January 2005 and December 2013.

The analysis described in this paper fully exploits the potential of the hybrid technique by means of a multivariate analysis to achieve an unprecedented discrimination power between photon - and nucleus - induced air showers.

The Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) measures radio properties of cosmic - ray induced air showers within the Pierre Auger Observatory.
