关于高能和超高能宇宙射线的起源,仍有许多悬而未决的问题。由于它们的低通量,能量在1015 eV以上的宇宙射线只能通过测量它们与地球大气中的分子相互作用时产生的大量空气阵雨来间接探测。因此,很难确定每个初级宇宙射线的性质或其全球通量的组成,从而阻碍了对数据的充分理解。然而,在空气阵雨中产生的μ子总数与主粒子的质量数成比例。因此,直接测量这些μ子是了解主要宇宙射线化学成分的最佳方法。位于阿根廷malarg<e:1>镇附近的皮埃尔·奥格天文台[1]的目的是测量能量高于1017ev的宇宙射线。为此采用了一种混合技术,其中结合使用荧光检测器(FD)和表面检测器(SD)来检测广泛的空气淋点。FD由27个荧光望远镜组成,分布在SD边缘的四个位置。SD由1600个水切伦科夫探测器(wcd)组成,间隔1500米(SD-1500),覆盖总面积3000平方公里,以及71个水切伦科夫探测器(wcd)组成的更密集的阵列,超过28平方公里,间隔750米(SD-750)。最近,SD能量阈值已被扩展到1016。由于安装了一个更密集的约2平方公里的阵列,其中探测器间隔433米(SD-433)。
Many questions remain open concerning the origin of high-and ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. Due to their low flux, cosmic rays with energy above 1015 eV can only be indirectly detected by measuring extensive air showers produced when they interact with molecules in the Earth’s atmosphere. Therefore, the nature of each primary cosmic ray, or the composition of their global flux, is difficult to determine, hindering the full understanding of data. However, the total number of muons produced in air showers scales with the mass number of the primary particle. Direct measurements of these muons are thus optimal to understand the chemical composition of primary cosmic rays.The aim of the Pierre Auger Observatory [1], located near the town of Malargüe in Argentina, is to measure cosmic rays with energies above 1017 eV. A hybrid technique is employed to do so, in which a fluorescence detector (FD) and a surface detector (SD) are used in combination to detect extensive air showers. The FD is composed of 27 fluorescence telescopes distributed at four sites at the edge of the SD. The SD consists of an array of 1600 water-Cherenkov detectors (WCDs) with a 1500 m spacing (SD-1500), covering a total area of 3000 km2, and a denser array of 71 WCDs over 28 km2 with a 750m spacing (SD-750). More recently, the SD energy threshold has been extended down to 1016. 5 eV thanks to the installation of an even denser array of about 2km2 in which detectors are spaced by 433 m (SD-433).
