showers of energies around $100,$PeV and higher with an array of radio
antennas. Since the amplitude of the radio signal can be measured absolutely
and increases with the shower energy, radio measurements can be used to
determine the air-shower energy on an absolute scale. We show that calibrated
measurements of radio detectors operated in coincidence with host experiments
measuring air showers based on other techniques can be used for comparing the
energy scales of these host experiments. Using two approaches, first via direct
amplitude measurements, and second via comparison of measurements with air
shower simulations, we compare the energy scales of the air-shower experiments
Tunka-133 and KASCADE-Grande, using their radio extensions, Tunka-Rex and
LOPES, respectively. Due to the consistent amplitude calibration for Tunka-Rex
and LOPES achieved by using the same reference source, this comparison reaches
an accuracy of approximately $10,\%$ - limited by some shortcomings of LOPES,
which was a prototype experiment for the digital radio technique for air
showers. In particular we show that the energy scales of cosmic-ray
measurements by the independently calibrated experiments KASCADE-Grande and
Tunka-133 are consistent with each other on this level. | | Source: | arXiv, 1610.8343 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
