Constraints on upward-going air showers using the Pierre Auger Observatory data
Original language description
The fluorescence detector (FD) of the Pierre Auger Observatory is sensitive to upward-goingnair showers with energies above 1017 eV. Given its operation time and wide field of view,nthe FD has the potential to support or constrain the “anomalous” observations by the ANITAndetector, interpreted as upward-going air showers that would be indicative of Beyond Standard Model (BSM) physics. To this end, a search for upward-going air showers with the FD has been performed applying selection criteria that were optimized using 10% of FD data. Dedicatednbackground simulations (downward-going events) have been performed to estimate our capability to distinguish candidates from false positives. Also dedicated signal simulations (upward-going events) have been used to estimate our sensitivity to such showers with a focus on the energy region close to the ANITA observations.
