25 Sep 2017 | | Abstract: | Interest in Radio-based detection schemes for ultra-high energy cosmic rays
(UHECR) has surged in recent years, owing to the potentially very low
cost/detection ratio. The method of radio-frequency (RF) scatter has been
proposed as potentially the most economical detection technology. Though the
first dedicated experiment to employ this method, the Telescope Array RADAR
experiment (TARA), reported no signal, efforts to develop more robust and
sensitive trigger techniques continue. This paper details the development of a
time-domain firmware trigger that exploits characteristics of the expected
scattered signal from an UHECR extensive-air shower (EAS). The improved
sensitivity of this trigger is discussed, as well as implementation in two
separate field deployments from 2016-2017. | | Source: | arXiv, 1709.8587 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
