Cosmogenic neutrinos and ultra-high energy cosmic ray models [PDF]
We use an updated version of SimProp, a Monte Carlo simulation scheme for the propagation of ultra-high energy cosmic rays, to compute cosmogenic neutrino fluxes expected on Earth in various scenarios.

Cosmic-ray protons, nuclei, electrons, and antiparticles under a two-halo scenario of diffusive propagation [PDF]
We report calculations of cosmic-ray proton, nuclei, antiproton, electron and positron energy spectra within a "two-halo model" of diffusive transport.

Elastic scattering in geometrical model
The experimental data on proton–proton elastic and inelastic scattering emerging from the measurements at the Large Hadron Collider, calls for an efficient model to fit the data.

Searching for strangelets in cosmic rays may be the best way to test the possible stability of strange quark matter. I review calculations of the astrophysical strangelet flux in the GV--TV rigidity range, which will be investigated from the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) on the International Space Station, and discuss the merits of strangelets ...

Using a linear stability analysis and two and three-dimensional nonlinear simulations, we study the physics of buoyancy instabilities in a combined thermal and relativistic (cosmic ray) plasma, motivated by the application to clusters of galaxies.

Cosmologically safe QCD axion as a present from extra dimension
We propose a QCD axion model where the origin of PQ symmetry and suppression of axion isocurvature perturbations are explained by introducing an extra dimension. Each extra quark–antiquark pair lives on branes separately to suppress PQ breaking operators.

The Eddington Limit in Cosmic Rays: An Explanation for the Observed Faintness of Starbursting Galaxies [PDF]
We show that the luminosity of a star forming galaxy is capped by the production and subsequent expulsion of cosmic rays from its interstellar medium. By defining an Eddington luminosity in cosmic rays, we show that the star formation rate of a given galaxy is limited by its mass content and the cosmic ray mean free path. When the cosmic ray luminosity

The Parker Instability with Cosmic Ray Streaming [PDF]
Recent studies have found that cosmic ray transport plays an important role in feedback processes such as star formation and the launching of galactic winds. Although cosmic ray buoyancy is widely held to be a destabilizing force in galactic disks, the effect of cosmic ray transport on the stability of stratified systems has yet to be analyzed.

Cosmic X-ray surveys of distant active galaxies [PDF]
We review results from cosmic X-ray surveys of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) over the past $$\approx 15$$≈15 years that have dramatically improved our understanding of growing supermassive black holes in the distant universe.

ABSTRACT The highly cross‐linked (epoxy) matrix material in fiber reinforced polymers has a microscopic volume between fibers and therefore exhibits different mechanical behavior in comparison to standard bulk epoxy samples. It has been found in previous studies that a decreased epoxy gauge volume leads to an increased deformation ability (necking and ...
