The AugerPrime upgrade of the Pierre Auger Observatory
Original language description
Operating since 2004, the Pierre Auger Observatory has yielded several important results. The suppression of the flux around 5x10(19) eV is now confirmed without any doubt, a large-scale dipole anisotropy has been found for energies above 8x10(18) eV, as well as an indication for some intermediate-scale anisotropy at the highest energies. Furthermore, strong limits have been placed on ultra-high-energy photons and neutrinos. In order to elucidate the origin of the flux suppression at the highest energies and search for composition-enhanced anisotropies, the Auger Collaboration is currently upgrading the Observatory. In the framework of the upgrade, called AugerPrime, the array of 1660 water-Cherenkov detectors is equipped with plastic scintillators, allowing us to enhance the composition sensitivity.
