Results will be shown from the ASTRONEU array developed and operated in the outskirts of Patras, Greece. An array of 9 scintillator detectors and 3 antennas were deployed to study Extensive Air Showers (EAS) as a tool for calibrating an underwater neutrino telescope, possible other applications in muon tomography, education purposes, and last but not least, the detection of air showers via their electromagnetic signature. This is the first stage of a total of 24 scintillator counters and 6 RF antennas to complete the array. In this work, results with regard to the electromagnetic detection of showers will be shown. The method of operation and analysis will be presented. The purpose of this project was to demonstrate the adequacy of the method to detect cosmic events even in the presence of high urban electromagnetic background, using noise filters, timing, signal polarization, and eventual comparison with well understood event reconstruction using the scintillator detectors. The results indicate that cosmic showers were detected and the method can be used for the complete array.

使用 Astroneu 阵列进行宇宙射线射频检测

结果将显示在希腊帕特雷郊区开发和运行的 ASTRONEU 阵列中。部署了由 9 个闪烁体探测器和 3 个天线组成的阵列,以研究作为校准水下中微子望远镜的工具的大范围空气阵雨 (EAS),以及可能在 μ 子断层扫描、教育目的以及最后但并非最不重要的空气簇射检测中的其他应用通过他们的电磁签名。这是完成阵列的总共 24 个闪烁体计数器和 6 个射频天线的第一阶段。在这项工作中,将显示有关淋浴电磁检测的结果。将介绍操作和分析方法。该项目的目的是证明即使在存在高城市电磁背景的情况下,使用噪声滤波器检测宇宙事件的方法的充分性,定时、信号极化,并最终与使用闪烁体探测器的众所周知的事件重建进行比较。结果表明检测到宇宙流星雨,该方法可用于完整阵列。
