One of the biggest challenges in cosmic-ray physics is to accurately pin down the absolute energy of a measured cosmic ray.
Scientific Highlights
Billions of subatomic particles can be created in cosmic-ray induced air showers.
The Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) measures radio properties of cosmic-ray induced air showers within the Pierre Auger Observatory.
High-energy neutrinos are thought to be excellent cosmic messengers when exploring the extreme universe.
