30TH INTERNATIONAL COSMIC RAY CONFERENCE Tests of hadronic interaction models with muon pseudorapidities measured with KASCADE-Grande
The Muon Tracking Detector in the KASCADE-Grande experiment allows the measurement of muon directions up to 700 m from the shower center. It means, that nearly all muons produced in a shower and surviving to the ground level are subject of investigation. It is important not only for studying mean muon production heights but also for investigations of EAS muon pseudorapidity distributions. These...
متن کاملTest of hadronic interaction models with the KASCADE-Grande muon data
KASCADE-Grande is an air-shower observatory devoted for the detection of cosmic rays with energies in the interval of 1014 − 1018 eV, where the Grande array is responsible for the higher energy range. The experiment comprises different detection systems which allow precise measurements of the charged, electron and muon numbers of extensive air-showers (EAS). These data is employed not only to r...
متن کاملExperimental constraints on left-right symmetric models from muon decay.
The TWIST Collaboration has completed a new measurement of the energy-angle spectrum of positrons from the decay of highly polarized muons. A simultaneous measurement of the muon decay parameters ρ, δ, and P(μ)(π)ξ tests the standard model in a purely leptonic process and provides improved limits for relevant extensions to the standard model. Specifically, for the generalized left-right symmetr...
متن کاملLow-Energy Hadronic Interaction Models
Different interaction models treating hadronic collisions below Elab<100 GeV in air shower simulations are compared within the frame of the CORSIKA program. Their behaviour is studied in isolated collisions of protons or pions with light-mass targets in comparison with experimental data. It is discussed how model properties influence air-shower parameters like the longitudinal profile or the la...
متن کامل30TH INTERNATIONAL COSMIC RAY CONFERENCE Test of hadronic interaction models with data from the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Observatory allows the measurement of both longitudinal profiles and lateral particle distributions of high-energy showers. The former trace the overall shower development, mainly of the electromagnetic component close to the core where the latter reflect the particle densities in the tail of the shower far away from the core and are sensitive to both the muonic and electromagn...
