Proton Intensity

Experiments with a heavy particle selector installed in an aircraft show that the proton intensity in the energy range 230 to 480 Mev. has a variation with height which is exponential, with absorption length 128 ± 10 gm./cm.2 The latitude effect between λ = 40°N. and λ = 56°N. is in general agreement with that found for fast (up to 5 Mev.) neutrons. Some information has been obtained on the variation of the average specific yield for primary energies below 5 Bev.

Composition Measurements

The Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) complements the Pierre Auger Observatory with 150 radio-antenna stations measuring in the frequency range from 30 to 80 MHz. With an instrumented area of 17 km2, the array constitutes the largest cosmic-ray radio detector built to date, allowing us to do multi-hybrid measurements of cosmic rays in the energy range of 1017 eV up to several 1018 eV. We give an overview of AERA results and discuss the significance of radio detection for the validation of the energy scale of cosmicray detectors as well as for mass-composition measurements.

The Sun

Super-Kamiokande is a 50 Kiloton water-Cherenkov that detects neutrinos in the MeV energy range that are produced in the Sun and neutrinos in the GeV energy range produced in the atmosphere by cosmic rays. The detector has been operational since April of 1996. In this paper results of our most recent analysis will be presented on both atmospheric and solar neutrinos.

Cosmic rays have always been an important tool to study particle interactions and astrophysics. In this article, we are going to review the main results from this field in the energy range from 1016 to 1020 eV. Important results from the KASCADE and Pierre Auger Experiments are going to be shown and discussed. Some perspectives for the near future concerning new measurements are going to be presented.
