A Simulation study of the performance of the AugerPrime Radio Detector — •Felix Schlüter for the Pierre Auger collaboration — Institut für Astroteilchenphysik, Karlsruhe, Deutschland

The AugerPrime Radio Detector will pioneer the detection of ultra-high energy cosmic rays with energies of up to 1020 eV with the aid of the world’s largest, 3000 km2 array of radio antennas. The detection of highly inclined air showers with radio antennas in coincidence with the Auger water-Cherenkov detector array provides highly complementary information yielding a strong sensitivity to the mass of the primary cosmic rays. Measuring the mass of cosmic rays at the highest energies is the key challenge in the quest after their origin. I will present first results of an end-to-end simulation study of the performance of the Auger Radio Detector. The study features a newly developed reconstruction model for the radio-emission induced footprint of inclined air showers. Based on the achieved performance, the potential to discriminate between proton and iron primaries will be presented.
