Monte Carlo simulations of radio pulses in atmospheric showers using ZHAireS

TL;DR: In this paper, an AIRES-based Monte Carlo code that takes into account the full complexity of ultra-high energy cosmic-ray induced shower development in the atmosphere, and allows the calculation of the electric field in both the time and frequency domains is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Giant Radio Array for Neutrino Detection (GRAND): Science and design

Jaime Alvarez-Muñiz, +57 more
TL;DR: The giant radio array for neutrino detection (GRAND) is a planned large-scale observatory of ultra-high-energy (UHE) cosmic particles, with energies exceeding 108 GeV as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of the Radiation Energy in the Radio Signal of Extensive Air Showers as a Universal Estimator of Cosmic-Ray Energy

A. Aab, +510 more
TL;DR: The radiation energy provides direct access to the calorimetric energy in the electromagnetic cascade of extensive air showers and allows the direct calibration of any cosmic-ray radio detector against the well-established energy scale of the Pierre Auger Observatory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Energy and flux measurements of ultra-high energy cosmic rays observed during the first ANITA flight

TL;DR: The first flight of the Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna (ANITA) experiment recorded 16 radio signals that were emitted by cosmic-ray induced air showers in this paper.
