Astroparticle studies at the Pierre Auger Observatory
Lili Yang, invited lecture at foreign university

Abstract: The Pierre Auger Observatory (PAO), the world’s largest cosmic ray detector combines a large surface detector (SD) with an air fluorescence detector (FD). It is designed to observe extensive air showers (EAS) of billions of secondary particles induced by the UHECRs in the earths’ atmosphere. The “hybrid” design (i.e., detected simultaneously by SD and FD) provides wealth of information about shower development and excellent event reconstruction. Together with observations of UHECRs, the Surface Detector (SD) of the PAO is sensitive to UHE neutrinos through the observation of deeply initiated inclined down-going showers produced by neutrino interactions in the atmosphere, which method has been well established. On the other hand, high-energy photons can also be discriminated from background of charged cosmic rays based on their characters of the shower front. In this talk, I will give a review on recent results from PAO and introduce the ultra-high energy multi-messenger studies from PAO.

Multi-messenger study with the Pierre Auger Observatory
Lili Yang, unpublished invited conference lecture

Abstract: The Pierre Auger Observatory is the largest cosmic ray detector in the world, studying particles with energy above 10^17 eV. Even though Auger is dedicated to charged cosmic rays, it’s also sensitive to ultra-high energy neutral particles, such as photons, neutrinos and neutrons, which are undeflected by magnetic field and pointing back to the source site. More exciting, with the breakthrough observations of gravitational-wave signal, the new era of multi-messenger analysis has come. I will present the recent results and prospects of multi-messenger study with Auger and also the first joint detection of gravitational and electromagnetic radiation from the source, with a focus on the UHE neutrino search.
