Scientific paper

The Auger Observatory aims at the detection of Ultra-High-Energy CosmicRays using atmospheric fluorescence telescopes over-viewing a 3000 km2 array of water Cherenkov tanks, a mini prototype of which has been successfully taking data since 12/2001 in the province of Mendoza, Argentina. In this paper we present a Monte Carlo calculation of the hybrid sensitivity of the Auger-South Observatory to highly inclined hadron-induced air-showers, and show that such showers can play an important role to extract the mass composition of the highest energy cosmic rays.
