![]() | Sokolsky, Pierre | Effect of clouds on apertures of space-based air fluorescence detectors | Space-based ultra-high-energy cosmic ray detectors observe fluorescence light from extensive air showers produced by these particles in the troposphere. Clouds can scatter and absorb this light and produce systematic errors in energy determination and spectrum normalization. We study the possibilit... | Fluorescence; Cloud detection; Extensive air showers | 2004-01 |
