1. Solar Cycle Modulation of Cosmic Rays Observed with the Low Energy Modes of the Pierre Auger ObservatoryMarko Zavrtanik, Danilo Zavrtanik, Lili Yang, Serguei Vorobiov, Darko Veberič, Marta Trini, Samo Stanič, Ahmed Saleh, Gašper Kukec Mezek, Andrej Filipčič, Jimmy Masías-Meza, 2015, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: The low energy modes of the surface detector array of the
Pierre Auger Observatory record variations in the flux of low
energy secondary particles with extreme detail. These two modes
consist of recording (1) the rate of signals for energies
between ∼15 MeV and ∼100 MeV (the Scaler mode) and (2) the
calibration charge histograms of the individual pulses detected
by each water-Cherenkov station, covering different energy
channels up to ∼1 GeV (the Histogram mode). Previous work has
studied the flux of galactic cosmic rays on short and
intermediate time scales (i.e. from minutes to weeks) using
these low energy modes. In this work, after including a long-
term correction to the response of the detectors, we present
the first long-term analysis of the flux of cosmic rays using
scalers and two energy bands of the calibration histograms.
We show its sensitivity to the solar cycle variation and its
relation to the solar modulation of cosmic rays for an 8-year
period.
