A 3-year sample of almost 1,600 elves recorded above South America by the Pierre Auger Cosmic-Ray observatory
Original language description
Elves are a class of transient luminous events, with a radial extent typically greater than 250km, that occur in the lower ionosphere above strong electrical storms. We report the observation of 1,598 elves, from 2014 to 2016, recorded with unprecedented time resolution (100 ns) using the fluorescence detector (FD) of the Pierre Auger Cosmic-Ray Observatory. The Auger Observatory is located in the Mendoza province of Argentina with a viewing footprint for elve observations of 3106km 2, reaching areas above the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, as well as the Cordoba region, which is known for severe convective thunderstorms. Primarily designed for ultrahigh energy cosmic-ray observations, the Auger FD turns out to be very sensitive to the ultraviolet emission in elves.
