Muon counting with the Underground Muon Detector of The Pierre Auger Observatory
The Underground Muon Detector (UMD) aims to extend the detection range of the Pierre Auger Observatory to observe cosmic rays of energies greater than 1016.6 eV and performs a direct measurement of the muon component (sensitive observable to the mass composition) of the air showers. In this work, we...
