1. The Energy Content of Extensive Air Showers in the Radio Frequency Range of 30-80 MHzMarko Zavrtanik, Danilo Zavrtanik, Lili Yang, Serguei Vorobiov, Darko Veberič, Marta Trini, Samo Stanič, Ahmed Saleh, Gašper Kukec Mezek, Andrej Filipčič, Christian Glaser, 2015, published scientific conference contribution Abstract: At the Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) of the Pierre Auger
Observatory, we have developed a new method to measure the
total amount of energy that is transferred from the primary
cosmic ray into radio emission. We find that this radiation
energy is an estimator of the cosmic ray energy. It scales
quadratically with the cosmic ray energy, as expected for
coherent emission. We measure 15.8 MeV of radiation energy for
a 1 EeV air shower arriving perpendicular to the geomagnetic
field at the Auger site, in the frequency band of the detector
from 30 to 80 MHz. These observations are compared to the data
of the surface detector of the Observatory, which provide
well-calibrated energies and arrival directions of the cosmic
rays. We find energy resolutions of the radio reconstruction
of 22% for the complete data set, and 17% for a high-quality
subset containing only events with at least five stations with
signal.

2. Status and Prospects of the Auger Engineering Radio ArrayMarko Zavrtanik, Danilo Zavrtanik, Lili Yang, Serguei Vorobiov, Darko Veberič, Marta Trini, Samo Stanič, Ahmed Saleh, Gašper Kukec Mezek, Andrej Filipčič, Johannes Schulz, 2015, published scientific conference contribution Abstract: The Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) is an extension of the
Pierre Auger Observatory. It is used to detect radio emission
from extensive air showers in the 30 - 80 MHz frequency band.
A focus of interest is the dependence of the radio emission on
shower parameters such as the energy and the atmospheric depth
of the shower maximum. After three phases of deployment, AERA
now consists of 153 autonomous radio stations with different
spacings, covering an area of about 17 km2. The size, station
spacings, and geographic location at the same site or near other
Auger extensions, are all targeted at cosmic ray energies above
10[sup]17 eV. The array allows us to explore different
technical schemes to measure the radio emission as well as to
cross calibrate our measurements with the established baseline
detectors of the Auger Observatory. We present the most recent
technological developments and selected experimental results
obtained with AERA.
