- Pierre Auger observatory: status report M. A. L. de Oliveira Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas The Pierre Auger Observatory is a large international effort to provide measurements of extensive air showers(EAS) initiated in the upper atmosphere by cosmic rays with energies above 1018 eV , the Ultra High EnergyCosmic Rays (UHECRs). The explanations for the origin, acceleration processes and composition of theUHECRs face theoretical and experimental difficulties, due to the extremely low flux in this energy region.The full observatory will consist of a hybrid detector using an array of 1600 water ˇ Cerenkov tanks spread overan area of 3000 km2 overlooked by a set of 4 air fluorescence detectors per site. The southern site is beinginstrumented in Argentina and I will discuss its present status in this paper. 2004 artículo científico 0103-9733 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46434716 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=464 Brazilian Journal of Physics application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Física Brazilian Journal of Physics (Brasil) Num.4A Vol.34
