Precision measurements of cosmic rays up to the highest energies with a large radio array at the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Observatory is presently being upgraded to enlarge its detection capabilities for ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. Part of this upgrade is a radio detector array, aimed to cover a surface area of 3000 km2 to measure the properties of the highest-energy cosmic rays. The plans for this...
