trust_score

trust_reason
full-length companion to the PRL on the identical 215,030-event dataset, giving the exposure calculation and complete systematic-uncertainty budget; the most transparent Auger spectrum document, capped only by the shared ~14% energy-scale systematic
usefulness
2.5
usefulness_reason
same data as S-67 — adds the systematics/methods documentation but almost no independent evidential weight beyond it (log scale penalizes the replication)
method_read
detailed exposure and energy-scale error budget for the same spectrum; the point of the paper is transparency, not new data

curation_reason
not curated (swap-out, rank 18): rests on the identical 215k-event Auger 2020 dataset as S-67 — not independent evidence.
data_basis

Companion full-length paper to Aab et al. 2020 PRL, giving the detailed methodology, exposure calculation, and systematic-uncertainty budget behind Auger’s measured energy spectrum above 2.5x10^18 eV. relevance_note: primary methods/systematics source underlying the flux numbers used to compute total natural collisions above LHC-equivalent energy.
