Description

The Pierre Auger Observatory in Argentina aims to survey properties of cosmic rays. The signal of the surface detector array is used to determine the energy of a cosmic ray. It is described by an NKG-type lateral distribution function. A global fit of the parameters on all data of the SD-array shall improve our empirical parameters.
