ATLAS and ultra high energy cosmic ray physics
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 After a brief introduction to extended air shower cosmic ray physics the current and future deployment of forward detectors at ATLAS is discussed along with the various aspects of the current and future ATLAS programs to explore hadronic physics.

Universe, 2022 A ground-level enhancement (GLE) event is a sudden increase in cosmic ray intensity originated by solar sources and recorded by ground-based detectors. GLEs are invariably associated with large solar flares that can release and accelerate solar particles

Cosmic vortons and particle physics constraints [PDF]
Physical Review D, 1996 We investigate the cosmological consequences of particle physics theories that admit stable loops of superconducting cosmic string - {\it vortons}. General symmetry breaking schemes are considered, in which strings are formed at one energy scale and subsequently become superconducting in a secondary phase transition at what may be a considerably lower ...

Cosmic neutrino flux and spin flavor oscillations in intergalactic medium
Physics Letters B, 2023 The ultra high energy (UHE) cosmic neutrinos are expected to play a pivotal role in the disquisition of physics beyond the standard model of particle physics as well as serve as an ideal cosmic messengers.

Statistical Physics for Cosmic Structures [PDF]
, 2005 The physics of scale-invariant and complex systems is a novel interdisciplinary field. Its ideas allow us to look at natural phenomena in a radically new and original way, eventually leading to unifying concepts independent of the detailed structure of the systems.

The Physics of Cosmic Acceleration [PDF]
Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2009 The discovery that the cosmic expansion is accelerating has been followed by an intense theoretical and experimental response in physics and astronomy. The discovery implies that our most basic notions about how gravity works are violated on cosmological distance scales. A simple fix is to introduce a cosmological constant into the field equations for

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 We have started up the ALPACA (Andes Large area PArticle detector for Cosmic ray physics and Astronomy) project. The ALPACA experiment is composed of an 83,000 m2 air shower array and a 5,400 m2 underground muon detector array to make wide field-of-view ...

Chapter 4 Cosmic-Ray Physics * [PDF]
Chinese Physics C, 2022 Abstract In the first part of this Chapter the present state of knowledge from the observations of cosmic rays between 1013 and 1020 eV is summarized. This is not intended to be a complete review, but rather a broad overview of the relevant processes involving cosmic rays, including the astrophysical environments in which they take place.

ARGO-YBJ: Highlights and Prospects
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014 The ARGO-YBJ experiment has been in stable data taking for 5 years at the YangBaJing Cosmic Ray Laboratory (Tibet, P.R. China, 4300 m a.s.l., 606 g/cm2). With a duty-cycle greater than 86% the detector collected about 51011 events in a wide energy range,

The origin of galactic cosmic rays [PDF]
, 2007 The origin of galactic cosmic rays is one of the most interesting unsolved problems in astroparticle physics. Experimentally, the problem is attacked by a multi-disciplinary effort, namely by direct measurements of cosmic rays above the atmosphere, by ...
