The AMIGA Muon Counters of the Pierre Auger Observatory: Performance and Studies of the Lateral Distribution Function
The AMIGA enhancement (Auger Muons and Infill for the Ground
Array) of the Pierre Auger Observatory consists of a 23.5 km2
infill area where air shower particles are sampled by water-
Cherenkov detectors at the surface and by 30 m2 scintillation
counters buried 2.3 m underground. The Engineering Array of
AMIGA, completed since February 2015, includes 37 scintillator
modules (290 m2) in a hexagonal layout. In this work, the muon
counting performance of the scintillation detectors is analysed
over the first 20 months of operation. Parametrisations of the
detector counting resolution and the lateral trigger
probability are presented. Finally, preliminary results on the observed muon lateral distribution function (LDF) are discussed.
