dc.description.abstractThe Pierre Auger Observatory is a hybrid detector for ultra-high energy cosmic rays. It combines a surface array to measure secondary particles at ground level together with a fluorescence detector to measure the development of air showers in the atmosphere above the array. The fluorescence detector comprises 24 large telescopes specialized for measuring the nitrogen fluorescence caused by charged particles of cosmic ray air showers. In this paper we describe the components of the fluorescence detector including its optical system, the design of the camera, the electronics, and the systems for relative and absolute calibration. We also discuss the operation and the monitoring of the detector. Finally, we evaluate the detector performance and precision of shower reconstructions.
dc.description.sponsorshipThe successful installation and commissioning of the Pierre Auger Observatory would not have been possible without the strong commitment and effort from the technical and administrative staff in Malargue. ¨ We are very grateful to the following agencies and organizations for financial support: Comisio´n Nacional de Energ?´a Ato´mica, Fundacio´n Antorchas, Gobierno De La Provincia de Mendoza, Municipalidad de Malargue, NDM Holdings and Valle Las Len ¨ ˜as, in gratitude for their continuing cooperation over land access, Argentina; the Australian Research Council; Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cient?´fico e Tecnolo´ gico (CNPq), Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos (FINEP), Fundac-ao de Amparo ~ a Pesquisa do Estado de Rio de Janeiro (FAPERJ), Fundac-ao de Amparo ~ a Pesquisa do Estado de Sao Paulo (FAPESP), Ministe ~ ´ rio de Ciencia e ˆ Tecnologia (MCT), Brazil; AVCR AV0Z10100502 and AV0Z10100522, GAAV KJB300100801 and KJB100100904, GACR 202/06/P006, MSMT-CR LA08016, LC527, 1M06002 and MSM0021620859, Czech Republic; Centre de Calcul IN2P3/CNRS, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), Conseil Re´gional Ile-de-France, De´partement Physique Nucle´aire et Corpusculaire (PNC-IN2P3/CNRS), De´partement Sciences de l’Univers (SDU-INSU/CNRS), France; Bundesministerium fur Bildung ¨ und Forschung (BMBF), Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), Finanzministerium Baden-Wurttemberg, Helmholtz-Ge- ¨ meinschaft Deutscher Forschungs- zentren (HGF), Ministerium fur Wissenschaft und Forschung, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Minister- ¨ ium fur Wissenschaft, Forschung und Kunst, Baden-W ¨ u rttem- ¨ berg, Germany; Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN), Ministero dell’Istruzione, dell’Universita e della Ricerca (MIUR), Italy; Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnolog?´a (CONACYT), Mexico; Ministerie van Onderwijs, Cultuur en Wetenschap, Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek (NWO), Stichting voor Fundamenteel Onderzoek der Materie (FOM), Netherlands; Ministry of Science and Higher Education, Grant nos. 1 P03 D 014 30, N202 090 31/0623, and PAP/218/2006, Poland; Fundac-ao~ para a Ciencia e a Tecnologia, Portugal; Ministry ˆ for Higher Education, Science, and Technology, Slovenian Research Agency, Slovenia; Comunidad de Madrid, Consejer?´a de Educacio´n de la Comunidad de Castilla La Mancha, FEDER funds, Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacio´n, Xunta de Galicia, Spain; Science and Technology Facilities Council, UK; Department of Energy, Contract no.
