Direct Measurement of the Muon Density in Air Showers with the Pierre Auger Observatory

As part of the upgrade of the Pierre Auger Observatory, the Auger Muons and Infill for the Ground Array (AMIGA) underground muon detector extension will allow for direct muon measurements for showers falling into the SD-750 array. We optimized the AMIGA muon reconstruction procedure by introducing a...
