To correct these measurements for the effects introduced by atmospheric fluctuations, the Observatory contains a group of monitoring instruments to record atmospheric conditions across the detector site, an area exceeding 3000 km2. The atmospheric data are used extensively in the reconstruction of air showers, and are particularly important for the correct determination of shower energies and the depths of shower maxima. This paper contains a summary of the molecular and aerosol conditions measured at the Pierre Auger Observatory since the start of regular operations in 2004, and includes a discussion of the impact of these measurements on air shower reconstructions. Between 1018 and 1020 eV, the systematic uncertainties due to all atmospheric effects increase from 4% to 8% in measurements of shower energy, and 4 g cm 2 to 8 g cm 2 in measurements of the shower maximum.Submitted by Bruna Lessa (lessbruna@gmail.com) on 2012-05-17T19:46:58Z No. of bitstreams: 1 (23)1-s2.0-S0003996910000245-main.pdf: 425223 bytes, checksum: 89ebcc3ea765e8513cb27c15d295d5b9 (MD5)Made available in DSpace on 2012-05-17T19:46:58Z (GMT).
