Estimation of muons on the surface and correlation with the muonic signal of AugerPrime
Original language description
This work focuses on estimating the muon density at ground level using simulations and investigating its correlation with the muonic signal recorded by the Water Cherenkov Detectors (WCDs) of the Pierre Auger Observatory. The study is motivated by the need to validate the estimation of the muonic signal in the WCDs. The methodology involves the development of a parameterization for the surface muon density based on simulated muon data from the Underground Muon Detector (UMD) of AugerPrime—an upgrade to the Pierre Auger Observatory. Our results indicate a negligible bias and a resolution better than 40 at energies above 1017.5 eV. Furthermore, we find a strong positive correlation between the estimated muon density and the simulated muonic signals in the WCDs.
