Cosmic Ray Physics with the LOFAR Radio Telescope

, 2019
The LOFAR radio telescope is able to measure the radio emission from cosmic ray induced air showers with hundreds of individual antennas. This allows for precision testing of the emission mechanisms for the radio signal as well as determination of the ...

Hard X-ray emission of the Earth's atmosphere: Monte Carlo simulations [PDF]

, 2006
We perform Monte Carlo simulations of cosmic ray-induced hard X-ray radiation from the Earth's atmosphere. We find that the shape of the spectrum emergent from the atmosphere in the energy range 25-300 keV is mainly determined by Compton scatterings and ...

Monitoring and forecasting of great radiation hazards for spacecraft and aircrafts by online cosmic ray data [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2005
We show that an exact forecast of great radiation hazard in space, in the magnetosphere, in the atmosphere and on the ground can be made by using high-energy particles (few GeV/nucleon and higher) whose transportation from the Sun is characterized by ...

Buoyancy Instabilities in Galaxy Clusters: Convection Due to Adiabatic Cosmic Rays and Anisotropic Thermal Conduction

, 2009
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.

Nuclear Physics Meets the Sources of the Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays [PDF]

, 2016
The determination of the injection composition of cosmic ray nuclei within astrophysical sources requires sufficiently accurate descriptions of the source physics and the propagation - apart from controlling astrophysical uncertainties.

Dual‐Surface Reaction Enabled Organic–Inorganic Hybrid Photodiodes for Faint Light Detection and Imaging

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work proposes a dual‐surface reaction strategy to optimize the interfacial contacts in organic–inorganic photodetectors. 1,4,5,8,9,11‐hexaazatriphenylene hexacarbonitrile (HAT‐CN) and ytterbium layers are designed to react with the Si surface, thus minimizing noise.

Measurements of the isotopes of lithium, beryllium, and boron from ACE/CRIS [PDF]

, 2001
The isotopes of lithium, beryllium, and boron (LiBeB) are known in nature to be produced primarily by CNO spallation and α-α fusion from interactions between cosmic rays and interstellar nuclei.

Deciphering the Interplay Between Wetting and Chemo‐Mechanical Fracture in Lithium‐Ion Battery Cathode Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The fundamental intricate couplings between electrolyte wetting and fracture evolution are investigated in large single‐crystal V2O5 samples using both experimental techniques and simulations. Both approaches reveal consistent fracture patterns and lithium distribution concentration maps influenced by the wetting mechanism.

Quantitative Constraint on the Contribution of Resolved Gamma-Ray Sources to the Sub-PeV Galactic Diffuse Gamma-Ray Flux Measured by the Tibet ASγ Experiment

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Motivated by the difference between the fluxes of sub-PeV Galactic diffuse gamma-ray emission (GDE) measured by the Tibet AS γ experiment and the LHAASO collaboration, our study constrains the contribution to the GDE flux measured by Tibet AS γ from the ...

Proteins, Processing, and Properties of Adhesive Fluid Condensates Purified from Mussels

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mussels exhibit an unmatched proficiency for adhering to wet surfaces in salty environments—a remarkable ability that could inspire new biomedical and technical glues. The fluid protein condensates used to form the underwater mussel glue are extracted, reconstituted and characterized with advanced spectroscopy and nanomechanical analysis, revealing ...
