VO auger is one of the biggest resource consumers of the EGI grid. It is used for Monte Carlo simulations of the extensive cosmic ray showers. Reconstructed signal is compared with measurements of the Pierre Auger Observatory.

VO auger central servers

  • VOMS server: voms1.egee.cesnet.cz, voms2.grid.cesnet.cz
  • LFC server: lfc1.egee.cesnet.cz
