The cosmic-ray air-shower signal in Askaryan radio detectors [PDF]
, 2015 We discuss the radio emission from high-energy cosmic-ray induced air showers hitting Earth's surface before the cascade has died out in the atmosphere.

Electrochemical etching processes for the detection of neutrons and radon-decay products [PDF]
Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2004 The electrochemical etching, because of its complexity, is of interest when it makes it possible to achieve detection characteristics which are not encountered with the chemical etching.

Measuring the UHE cosmic-ray composition with tracking detectors in air shower arrays [PDF]
, 1996 Measuring the angles of muons and electrons in air showers is proposed as a method for studying the primary cosmic-ray mass composition near the knee of the cosmic-ray energy spectrum at a few $10^{15}$ eV. Conventional tracking detectors at existing air

Cosmic Rays with the LEP detectors [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 2003 The LEP detectors are well suited for different studies on cosmic ray induced muons. In here, several aspects of the muon spectrum are reported. The vertical as well as the zenith-angle dependence of both the absolute muon spectrum and the muon charge ratio have been measured.

Simulations of black hole air showers in cosmic ray detectors [PDF]
, 2005 We present a comprehensive study of TeV black hole events in Earth's atmosphere originated by cosmic rays of very high energy. An advanced fortran Monte Carlo code is developed and used to simulate black hole extensive air showers from ultrahigh-energy ...
