Analysis of cosmic rays below the ankle with the high elevation Auger telescopes (HEAT) (pdf)
The High Elevation Auger Telescopes are an enhancement of the Pierre Auger Observatory operating since Sept. 2009. Their main purpose is to enlarge the energy range of the Auger Fluorescence Telescopes towards 10^17 eV. In the talk we will focus on the explanation of the Field Of View of the telescopes and its relevance for the measurement of the low energy cosmic ray composition.
