Initial simulation study on high-precision radio measurements of the depth of shower maximum with SKAI-low

As LOFAR has shown, using a dense array of radio antennas for detecting extensive air showers initiated by cosmic rays in the Earth’s atmosphere makes it possible to measure the depth of shower maximum for individual showers with a statistical uncertainty less than 20g/cm2. This allows detailed stud...
