Radio Detection of Horizontal Extensive Air Showers with AERA

28 Sep 2015  ·  Kambeitz Olga for the Pierre Auger Collaboration ·

AERA, the Auger Engineering Radio Array, located at the Pierre Auger Observatory in Malarg\"ue, Argentina measures the radio emission of extensive air showers in the 30-80 MHz frequency range and is optimized for the detection of air showers up to 60$^{\circ}$ zenith angle. In this contribution the motivation, the status, and first results of the analysis of horizontal air showers with AERA will be presented.
